Henry Jordan, Nationwide’s Director of Mortgages, said: “We are reducing our rates again to ensure that we continue to remain one of the best lenders in the market for rate as well as service. The changes are being made across our range meaning all types of borrowers could benefit, whether they are moving home, getting their first home or remortgaging. And, the extension of our £1,499 fee product range to all LTV tiers up to 90 per cent expands the choice available to borrowers with the Society.”
