High street lenders reduce rates as Bank of England suggests inflation may have peaked.
After the Bank of England (BoE) voted to increase the base rate at the beginning of the month many lenders began reducing their fixed mortgage rates.
This is reflected in data (Moneyfacts), which found the average two year fixed deal sat at 5.44% on the day of the voting. One week later it had dropped to 5.40%.
This hasn’t been a sudden trend, however. Fixed rates have been falling since the beginning of the year.
Five weeks ago the average five year fixed deal stood at 5.61%, but this has since been reduced to 5.12% last week.
Below we have listed some of the notable fixed rate reductions over the past week, with some mortgages now offering a fixed rate below 4%.
