HSBC UK cuts mortgage rates and now offers lowest ever rate

HSBC UK has cut interest rates of up to 0.15% on mortgages up to 80% LTV, and now offers its lowest ever fixed mortgage rate at 0.89%, the bank confirmed today.

This move comes as HSBC UK introduces a new mobile-friendly mortgage Decision in Principe tool online, which typically allows customers to complete a Decision In Principle in less than 10 minutes.

The mortgage rate changes include:

  • The bank’s lowest ever mortgage rate: 60% LTV 2 Year fixed rate (with £999 fee) cut by 0.05% to 0.89%;
  • Five year deal goes sub-1%: 60% LTV 5 year fixed rate (with £999 fee) down by 0.10% to 0.99%;
  • 75% LTV 5 year fixed rate (£999 fee) reduced by 0.10% to 1.19%; and
  • 75% LTV 5 year fixed rate (Feesaver) down by 0.15% to 1.54%

Michelle Andrews, HSBC UK’s Head of Buying A Home, said: “Remortgaging, buying a home or getting additional lending with us has never been cheaper. And now, with improvements to our application process, accessing a Decision In Principle online or on your mobile, has never been quicker.

“The benefits of a lower rate, and lower mortgage payments, are obvious, but providing applicants with a rapid Decision In Principle and an instant email confirming our lending, provides applicants with important peace of mind and means they don’t need to hold back on timely decisions when they could be looking at the house of their dreams or their forever home.”
