As the day grows closer when waistlines bulge to their maximum, Chelsea has loosened the belt on a number of its fixed-rate mortgages in order to offer more attractive rates to customers.
The new products include; 2-year fixed-rate, 3-year fixed-rate and a 5-year fixed-rate and are launched on Friday 10th December 2004.
Speaking about the new products Sean Scannell, Chelsea’s Marketing Communications Controller said, “ The changes make these Chelsea mortgages some of the most competitive rates currently on the market and with January not that far away, the period when most people look to review their financial situation, they will be even more in demand.”
