John Charcol mortgage technical manager Nicholas Mendes says: “Following TSB’s recent repricing, Virgin has moved quickly to take over the top spot for remortgage two-year fixed-rate deals from tomorrow.
“It’s fantastic to see a lender quickly pick up where another lender has exited, but with any exclusive deal mortgage holders need to react quickly to secure.”
Virgin Money head of intermediary sales Richard Walker adds: “We have reintroduced our intermediary exclusive products and made a number of reductions across our residential and BTL range, supporting all segments of the market.
These exclusives consist of both purchase and remortgage products including a new range of remortgage two-year fixed rate loans with a 1% fee offering a lower monthly payment.”
