Sean Hanson, senior mortgage manager at Leeds Building Society, said: “As a key lender in the affordable housing sector, our purpose is to put homeownership within reach of more people, and part of that goal is ensuring we can keep them in their homes.
"Our decision to improve rates on products shows further support for affordable housing schemes and homebuyers looking to step onto the housing ladder.”
