Leeds Building Society has launched a new five-year fixed rate deal for remortgagers, priced at 3.34 per cent up to 85 per cent loan-to-value, with no product fee.
The deal also includes a free valuation for properties worth up to £500,000 and fees assisted legal services.
Martin Richardson, the society’s general manager for business development, said: “We’ve experienced strong and growing demand in the past couple of months from remortgagers who are taking the opportunity to switch to a better deal.
“With the base rate potentially staying at its historic low for longer than recent speculation has indicated, a longer-term fix at a competitive rate is an attractive option for borrowers wanting security of payments for what’s likely to be their largest monthly outgoing.
Leeds’ deal comes after Accord mortgages launched fee-free two-year tracker options for landlords looking to remortgage, with a choice of free standard valuation and legal fees, or £300 cashback and free standard valuation at 2.49 per cent for 60 per cent LTV or 2.74 per cent for 65 per cent LTV.
