Stuart Miller, customer director at Newcastle Intermediaries, said: “We’re pleased to see that the first time buyer market remains very active, and our reduction in rates supports buyers making their first step onto the housing ladder. We are dedicated to supporting the first time buyer market and our flexible and common sense approach to underwriting means we can consider customers who require a bespoke approach.
“These products would also suit those looking to re-mortgage and possibly increase their loan to make the most of some extra funding for home improvements for example. We’re also seeing an overall increase in five year mortgages with borrowers wanting more certainty around monthly payments and locking in longer term deals.”
