Paul Adams (pictured), sales director at Pepper Money, said: “At Pepper Money, we understand how difficult recent years have been for brokers, with the impact of Covid, many lenders struggling with service, and the rate disruption to the market last year. Throughout, we have maintained our commitment to delivering a range of specialist mortgages to help their customers who don’t meet the criteria of high street lenders, supported by consistently delivering excellent service that has been recognised by our market leading four-star rating at the FT Adviser Service Awards and frequent five-star Trustpilot reviews.

“These rate reductions reflect our growing appetite to increase our lending over the coming months as we build on the rising confidence in the funding markets to help an even greater number of customers achieve their goals.”
