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.

If you walk down almost any Shepperton road or street, you will see the quiet signs of life playing out behind the front doors. Families growing. Kids leaving home. Kitchens are being refitted for the second or third time. Yet somewhere in that rhythm, every homeowner starts to feel it again ... the gentle itch to move.

Selling for the first time can feel overwhelming. Everyone has advice, most of it conflicting. Here are the key questions to ask every estate agent, plus the step-by-step process you’ll go through to launch your home the right way.

If you listened to the doom merchants, you would think first-time buyers (FTB) in Shepperton had no chance at all. According to the loudest voices, buying a first home is impossible, the ladder has been pulled up, and the only people who buy their first homes today are lottery winners or those with wealthy parents.

For many, the first time you sell a home is completely different to when you were a first time buyer. This time, you have to balance the sale of your current property and the purchase of your new home.
