Tracie Pearce, Head of Product Management and Pricing at The Mortgage Works, said:
“We’ve strengthened the competitiveness of our Prime Residential range by introducing several new products, as well as improving the rates on selected existing products.
"This is great news for intermediaries, as there is a wider choice of residential mortgage deals to suit a variety of needs; for example, there’s a unique new two-year tracker with a shorter ERC period, which will benefit customers seeking short-term flexibility.”

- Let to Buy Lifetime Variable product now with flat fee
Tracie Pearce said:
“By introducing a new LTV tier on a variety of products, a wider range of customers will be able to access our lower rate options.
"Furthermore, by increasing the number of products with no arrangement fee, in addition to percentage based and flat fee options, intermediaries and borrowers have greater flexibility and choice.”
