For those remortgaging, the package includes free legal services or £250 cashback. The five-year option at the same LTV offers rates of 6.07% and 6.17%, with similar benefits.
The 87.5% LTV product has a two-year option at 6.74% with a £999 fee, and a five-year rate starting at 6.47%. The 92.5% LTV, targeted solely at purchasers, offers a two-year fixed rate of 7.24% with a fee, or 7.47% with no fee, both including a free valuation.
“The launch of our Mid LTV range speaks to Kensington’s commitment to continuing to innovate, making brokers’ lives easier, and helping more people to own their home,” said Vicki Harris (pictured), chief commercial officer at Kensington Mortgages.
“The new offering aims to ensure that customers can access the right product for their specific needs and that they are not forced into a higher LTV when making their purchase, so they effectively only pay for what they need.”
