Mike Cook, Head of Post Office Mortgages said:


"We constantly review our mortgage range to ensure we are offering customers choice and value for money. Many recent headline-grabbing rates have large booking or arrangement fees, and require a much larger deposit. Our new range means many customers with 25% deposit or less can benefit from great fixed rates with no arrangement fee, and some with valuation and legal fees included too. These deals will particularly help remortgage customers reduce their monthly payments without having to pay upfront fees.

"This a very exciting time for Post Office Mortgages. As well as offering a new range of products we are currently in the process of launching our in-branch Mortgage Specialists.  We understand that finding the right mortgage can be complex and our specially trained Mortgage Specialists can assist our customers through the process. This move is the next step in giving customers a genuine alternative to major high street banks."
