Two more lenders announce cuts in mortgage rates

Following on from HSBC and Halifax slashing their rates last week, Barclays and Santander have just released information on rate cuts

Our mortgage adviser is updating us daily to the significant changes in the mortgage market.

Last week we saw HSBC and Halifax make big moves. Now Barclays and Santander are slashing rates.

Barclays, from tomorrow cuts of up to 0.5% will apply, including:

  • Two year fixed with 60% loan to value - down from 4.62% to 4.17%
  • 75% LTV down from 4.7% to 4.2%
  • 95% from 5.8% to 5.5%

Santander has announced cuts to rates on a number of products from tomorrow. They will reduce standard residential fixed rate mortgages by up to 0.82% for new customers.

This means a 60% LTV five year fixed rate will be available from 3.94%.

The same deal, but for remortgages, will be available from 3.89%.

Buy-to-let two and five year fixed rates will go down by up to 0.56%.

The news is changing daily, if you are looking to buy or remortgage we recommend speaking to Kingsgate Partners who work with these mentioned lenders plus many more. They can advise you of rate changes as they happen to make sure you have access to the best rates.

In early 2023, property forecasters predicted a significant UK housing downturn over the next two years, citing rising interest rates following Liz Truss's departure. Halifax expected an 8% drop, Savills predicted a 10% drop, and Nomura Bank forecast up to a 15% drop.

When you look back at the average rents achieved in Shepperton over the last five years, from 2021 through to 2025, a clear pattern emerges. Shepperton saw extraordinary growth in rents as the market experienced a period of exceptional pressure post pandemic, yet in the last 12 months, is now settling into something far more measured.

The Renters' Rights Act is set to bring significant changes to the private rented sector. This guide will help both tenants and landlords understand what these updates mean for them, ensuring a smoother transition.

We often discuss the Shepperton property market through house prices. Yet long before price comes a home’s character. And long before its character comes its age.
