Tracie Pearce, Nationwide’s head of mortgages, said:
“We’re particularly pleased to be able to reduce rates across the board, so everyone benefits, regardless of LTV and whether their deposit is 5% or 30%. This is the second reduction we’ve made to our rates in as many weeks and we’ve maintained the additional discount for existing customers as a reward for their loyalty.”
