Mark Bullard, Head of Sales, NatWest Intermediary Solutions said:
“Research we conducted recently with brokers showed that they were very optimistic about the prospects for both the remortgage and the buy-to-let sectors, so these rate reductions to almost 50 of our purchase and remortgage deals should be welcomed. The bulk of our residential rate cuts are for the higher LTV mortgages, including our first-time buyer only deals, underlining our appetite for supporting this sector of the market.”
