Halifax relaunches core variable mortgage range

Halifax's fixed rate mortgage deals are unchanged.

Craig Donaldson, head of mortgage products at Halifax, said:

"Feedback from customers has shown that they are looking for extra choice and more flexibility between the payable rate and a choice of fees so that they can tailor their own mortgage. We've acted on this feedback so that customers can choose exactly what they need to suit their individual circumstances."

The highlights of the new Halifax mortgage range are as follows:

First-Time Buyers

- First Time Buyers have the choice of any of the products in the home mover range or in addition any product from the range offered specifically to First Time Buyers.

- The First Time Buyers range has been designed specifically with the first time homebuyer in mind. Customers can choose from any one, two or all three extras offered which are; refunded valuation, £250 cashback or conveyancing service.

Home Movers

- It's all about choice. Customers can choose a low headline tracker rate with fees, a higher rate with no fees, or a combination of both.

Remortgage

- Similar to the Home Mover range, customers re-mortgaging to the Halifax can choose from a range of products whose interest rate reflects whether the product is 'fee-free' or not. Customers can also elect to use either the Halifax re-mortgage service or appoint their own conveyancer.

Existing Halifax Customers Moving Home

- Existing Halifax customers moving home can now extend the term of any two year tracker rate in the home mover range to three years. This will save the average Halifax customer over £500.
