Franco Di Pietro (pictured), head of intermediary mortgages at Newcastle Building Society, said, “As significant numbers of homeowners look to re-mortgage or switch in the coming year, we recognise the importance of responding to the changing requirements of the market, and believe our new re-mortgage rates provide the ideal option for those coming to the end of their existing mortgage term.

“We’re pleased to announce we’ll be lowering rates across our existing 80% LTV range and re-introducing a range of 60% LTV products. These updates to our residential mortgage proposition deliver real benefits to customers with a range of circumstances, looking to purchase a property or re-mortgage their existing home, including fee assisted options for those customers who are looking for help with costs.”
