We have a market-leading 2 year base rate tracker priced at 5.23% and we have a highly competitive 2 year fixed rate at 5.49%. We’ve also improved some of our FeeSaver deals which are ideal for first time buyers who want to minimise up-front fees. These, along with the rest of the range, offer great choice to borrowers, whether they are looking for the security of a fixed rate or the leading headline rate of a variable rate.”
