Stuart Beattie, head of mortgages at Platform, said: “We are delighted to offer our lowest ever 90% LTV rate. This complements Platform’s existing range of competitive deals to intermediaries, enabling them to offer a range of products to brokers and their clients.

“As we come to the end of 2015 we are delighted to have continued to offer competitive rates all year round and look forward to an exciting 2016 for intermediaries.”

Charlotte Nelson from Moneyfacts.co.uk, said: “This 2.24% deal is the lowest two-year fixed rate mortgage at 90% loan-to-value on record that Moneyfacts.co.uk has seen from an intermediary.

“This deal is likely to be a popular choice for any borrower with a modest 10% deposit, and is likely to be a cost-effective option for many.”
