Leeds launches 5-year fixed rate mortgage

Martin Richardson, general manager marketing and business development said, "We are very pleased to announce the launch of a new market leading 5 year fixed rate mortgage product at the best buy rate of only 4.59%. At a time of historically low interest rates, an increasing number of borrowers are looking to secure fixed rates to protect their monthly payments and lock in to low repayments.

"This product delivers peace of mind and security, over a large part of a typical mortgage life, at a very affordable rate. We know that many more mortgage holders will welcome the ability to budget and limit their monthly outgoings, particularly existing mortgage customers who may be coming to the end of their current deal.

"The rate of 4.59% is also combined with 10% capital repayments each year and no higher lending charge."
