Accord Mortgages mortgage product manager Gemma Hyland says: “We’re pleased to be passing on the benefit of market fluctuations to our brokers and their clients, ensuring we deliver the best possible value we can, and providing options for borrowers, whether they are looking to buy or remortgage their own home, or for a rental property.”

Meanwhile, Coventry for intermediaries has reduced all fixed purchase rates at 90% to 95% LTV for residential new borrowers.
