Henry Jordan, Nationwide’s director of mortgages, said: “While the housing market slowly begins to open up again, the mortgage market continues to remain as competitive as ever. Although many borrowers continue to like the security of fixing their mortgage repayments, we know there are some who want to take advantage of these historic low interest rates by going for a tracker mortgage.

“These reductions demonstrate our commitment to offering competitive rates on both fixed and trackers across a range of LTVs, ensuring we support borrowers no matter how much deposit they have.”
