Accord Mortgages is expanding its range of residential mortgages up to 90% of the property’s value, providing a wider selection of options for borrowers with a smaller deposit.

The broker-only arm of Yorkshire Building Society will reintroduce two and three-year products at 90% loan-to-value (LTV).

The lender has also reduced rates across the board, including cuts of up to 0.30 percentage points at 85% LTV, and 0.20 percentage points at 90% LTV.

What’s new?

Highlights of the new range include:

• A two-year fixed rate of 5.17% up to 90% of the property’s value, which comes with a £995 fee, £500 cashback and free standard valuation, available for house purchase
• A three-year fix at 5.00%, up to 90% of the property’s value for remortgage clients, which comes with a £995 fee, £250 cashback, remortgage legal services and free standard valuation
• A three-year fixed rate of 4.90% (was 5.20%) up to 85% of the property’s value, available for those remortgaging, which comes with a £995 fee, £250 cashback, remortgage legal service and free standard valuation
• A five-year fix at 4.47% (was 4.62%) available up to 75% of the property’s value, which comes with a £995 fee, for both house purchase and remortgage.

Gemma Hyland, Accord’s mortgage manager, said: “We’ve reviewed our product range and are now in a position to add shorter-term deals at 90% LTV, offering additional options to borrowers with smaller deposits who may wish to fix for a shorter period, due to market uncertainty or personal circumstances.
