The new two-year fix is available on the fee range and fee-assisted range
Later life lender LiveMore has expanded its product range by launching a two-year fixed rate mortgage available on its retirement interest only mortgage as well as its fixed term mortgage, which includes interest-only and repayment options.
LiveMore, which has launched a short-term fix for the first time, has also become the first lender in the 50- to 90-plus age space that offers two-, five-, and 10-year fixed rate mortgages, as well as fixed for life.
The new two-year fix, with rates from 6.17%, is available on LiveMore’s fee range and fee-assisted range, with the latter offering a free valuation and no product fee. The product is available across all four tiers, a structure which LiveMore employs to makes it easy for intermediaries to match their clients to the most appropriate mortgage.
“We want to offer all of our borrowers and intermediary partners a wide range of products, which is why we have introduced a short-term fixed rate option,” Phil Quinn (pictured), head of intermediary sales at LiveMore, commented. “It is available for interest-only and capital and interest mortgages for people aged 50 to 90-plus.
“Speaking to intermediaries we work with, it became clear that there was demand for a two-year fixed rate. People are uncertain about the future, and some want to see where rates will be in a couple of years before committing to a longer-term fixed interest rate.
“We’re pleased to add two-year fixed rates to our broad range of products for customers who want to fix with a shorter two-year ERC period. By increasing our range of fixed rate terms, it gives intermediaries more leeway to advise on length of the fix, depending on individual circumstances.”
