Foundation has launched a range of new limited edition residential remortgage products, as well as rate cuts across a number of its residential and buy-to-let (BTL) mortgages. The lender has introduced new F1 limited edition residential, remortgage-only products at 65% LTV, available on a two- and five-year fix at 6.09% and 6.24% respectively. Both products come with a £595 fee, a free standard valuation and no application fee. Alongside the launch, the specialist lender has also reduced rates by 20bps for purchaser and remortgager fixed rates, as well as remortgage-only deals. It has also reduced pricing across almost all of its BTL range up to 25 bps, with rates now starting at 5.14%.
West One Loans has reduced rates across its entire commercial and semi-commercial mortgage range. The cut applies to all commercial products, regardless of loan size, LTV tier or term length. As a result, fixed rates on semi-commercial mortgages now start from 7.09%, while commercial mortgage rates are available from 7.69%. The firm said the pricing update comes against a backdrop of continued volatility in the mortgage market, driven by a range of external economic factors.
