Jonathan Thompson, senior product & pricing manager at Leeds Building Society, said: “Including the changes made two weeks ago, we’ve now cut rates on 68 products this month and introduced 10 new residential products.

“With an average reduction of 0.37%, these changes will take hundreds of pounds off the price of an average residential reversionary rate for those who are nearing the end of their current mortgage.  We also hope these reduced rates will help many aspirational first-time buyers take their first step onto the property ladder.”
