Tracie Pearce, Head of Mortgages at HSBC, said:
“We are committed to helping customers take their first step onto, or move up, the property ladder. With mortgage rates lower than they’ve ever been before, we’re proud to introduce the lowest ever five year fixed rate. We’re also offering £1,000 cash back to homebuyers and have refreshed our mortgage range to ensure that homeowners with a smaller deposit have access to our historically low mortgage rates.”
Charlotte Nelson, Moneyfacts, added:
“This 1.99% deal is the first five year fixed rate mortgage to be launched below 2% and is the lowest on record that Moneyfacts.co.uk has seen. This deal is likely to be a popular choice for any borrower with the required 40% deposit, and will make a cost effective option over the longer term.”
