Northern Rock has improved its Everyday mortgage range,
offering lower rates which will make it more affordable for those
looking to buy a new property or remortgage their home. The new
Everyday fixed rates start from just 3.09%.
Everyday mortgages offer customers simple, straightforward mortgage deals with competitive
rates and the ability to make overpayments of up to 10% each year, as well as the
option to apply for payment holidays.
The news comes just weeks after it reduced its application fee for purchase
customers to just £99.
Until Saturday 23 October 2010, all successful mortgage applicants on any Northern
Rock purchase product who complete by 31st January 2011 will be entered into a prize
draw with the chance of winning a home 'makeover'. This prize will include a
personal consultation with an interior designer to help them plan the change, and
gift vouchers from retailer John Lewis.
Lloyd Cochrane, Head of Mortgage Products at Northern Rock said: "Buying a new
house can be very exciting, but making your new house your home can also be
expensive. Northern Rock understands this and so, as well as making rate cuts across
our Everyday range of mortgages, we are offering one lucky mortgage customer the
chance to win a fantastic new home makeover which we hope will help things along a
little."
Northern Rock continues to offer a choice of Fee Saver options across its Everyday
and Flexible product ranges for customers who are looking to keep their costs as low
as possible. And there is also a competitive range of Buy-to-Let mortgages available.
Northern Rock continues to operate its mortgage product range within the constraints
of the competitive measures agreed with the European Commission. Full details of the
entire mortgage product range offered by Northern Rock are included for information.
