Leeds launches five-year fix

Furthermore, there is no higher lending charge, a low fixed fee, free in-house legal services for remortgages and 10% capital repayments are allowed each year, without penalty.

Kim Rebecchi, director of sales & marketing said, "Market rates are ticking up and we have seen increased coverage in the media relating to fixed rate mortgages increasing. However, good value fixed rates are still available up to 85% loan to value.

"In these uncertain times, with historically low interest rates, we are seeing an increase in the number of customers looking to fix. Therefore, 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."
