NatWest has reintroduced a range of 90% loan to value (LTV) residential purchase mortgages for both first-time buyers and existing homeowners.

From 16 December, NatWest is reintroducing 90% LTV products for its NatWest and Royal Bank brands.

There are four new products, across the purchase range with fixed rates available for two and five years.

Gary Sutherland, head of mortgages and protection at NatWest said: “We are committed to helping people through the home buying journey, whether that’s customers’ moving house or taking their first step on to the property ladder. For first-time buyers, raising a deposit is still the biggest challenge.

“By reintroducing our 90% offering, we are pleased to be able to expand our support for the market to include both home movers and first-time buyers, making it easier to take their first step onto the housing ladder.”
