Fred Sharp, director of mortgage distribution at The Co-operative Bank, said: “We have been carefully reviewing our range of on sale mortgages since the start of 2022 and we are keen to support those aspiring to own their own home this new year who have a lower proportion of deposit to fund their purchase, this is why we’ve announced rate reductions to a number of our higher LTV mortgages today.
"Following the Bank of England Base Rate rise to 0.25% so close to the end of last year we’re continuing to review the products we have available to our broker partners as we move closer to the next MPC decision on February 2.”
