Barclays is starting the New Year by smashing down its rates and will introduce UK’s lowest ever ten-year fixed rate mortgage at 2.99 per cent for up to 60 per cent LTV from tomorrow (8 January).
The bank is also launching a new two-year tracker at Barclay’s Bank Base Rate + 0.89 per cent at up to 60 per cent LTV, offering the lowest follow on rate of BBBR of +1.99 per cent.
Andy Gray, managing director of mortgages for Barclays, says the new short-term tracker product could help a homeowner with a £150,000 mortgage balance with a market average SVR of 4.4 per cent save up to £4,595 within two years.
Barclays is changing the rates on a range of short- and medium-term products as well, which, according to Gray, the bank is confident will be “extremely appealing” to borrowers.
