Steve Aldous, general manager at Skipton, said: “The market has seen an increasing rise in rates throughout the year, but due to a welcomed respite we can now offer homeowners sweet relief with our new range of lower fixes.
“Despite the Bank of England base rate remaining at 5.75%, the cost of long-term fixed lending has now decreased. This means that borrowers coming to the end of a fix need not worry because they can choose from a variety of the best rates that we have had available for some time.
