Stuart Cheetham, CEO of MPowered Mortgages, said: “The Christmas break is a perfect time for people to review their finances and think about moving house, which is why we thought it was a great opportunity to launch new rates to help them.
“Keep calm and carry on is our motto for the Christmas season! We don’t have falling snow, but we do have falling swap rates, and with increased stability in the market, there are very positive signs for borrowers in 2024.
“As always, borrowers looking to take advantage of these new rates should seek independent professional advice to ensure a comprehensive understanding of the products on offer and how they match up to their requirements.”
