An interest rate of 6.15 per cent will also apply on applications seeking an LTV of up to 85 per cent. The interest rates will be fixed until 1 January 2004. An early redemption charge of five per cent will apply throughout the fixed period, thereafter, only one month’s interest will be charged.
Gary Forrest, sales and marketing director of High Street Home Loans, said: “I do not see why people who may have had some very minor problems with their finances years ago should not benefit from a good rate of interest today. That we are able to offer such good headline rates is a clear sign that this market has matured at a rapid rate of knots in recent years. All the signs are that this progress will ensure that better deals continue to be put on the table throughout the course of 2002.”
