Post Office Launches New Mortgage Rates

· 3.49% five year fixed rate mortgage at 80% LTV (no fee)
· 3.65% five year fixed rate mortgage at 85% LTV (£995 fee)
· 3.79% five year fixed rate mortgage at 85% LTV (no fee)
· 4.09% five year fixed rate mortgage at 90% LTV (£995 fee)
· 4.45% five year fixed rate mortgage at 90% LTV (no fee)
John Willcock, Head of Post Office Mortgages, said: “We have consistently offered some of the best deals on the market this year, allowing us to challenge the traditional high-street lenders. These latest deals highlight our commitment to providing customers with products that meet their needs, no matter what type of buyer they are”.
Customers can pick up information about the new mortgage range and rates online at postoffice.co.uk/mortgages or from one of over 11,500 Post Office branches across the UK. Customers can also arrange a call-back from a mortgage specialist at the call centre, via all branches, or call the Post Office directly on 0800 077 8033. Terms and condition can be found at postoffice.co.uk.
