Jemma Anderson, mortgage product manager at the Yorkshire, said: “Yorkshire Building Society is always looking for ways to help first time buyers on to the property ladder. This goal has been at the heart of our business since its creation and we believe these rate reductions will provide borrowers with more options as they look for value for money from their first mortgage.”
