“We have made rate reductions across most of the Clydesdale Bank range and have also reintroduced a 95% LTV mortgage deal for newly qualified professionals looking to purchase a property,” Richard Walker (pictured), head of intermediary sales at Virgin Money, said.

“We’ve reduced all larger loan exclusives at £1 million-plus too. For customers requiring a larger loan, our dedicated underwriting team is on hand to help with these or to discuss an application which doesn’t meet our standard lending criteria.”

The bank said the new rates are already reflected in all sourcing systems and in their online application system. Its complete list of mortgage products and their details is also available online.
