Ipswich Building Society refreshes mortgage range
Reduced rates designed to provide further support to mortgage misfits

Ipswich Building Society has reduced rates for nine of its mortgage products, available to direct applicants, selected networks and clubs and intermediaries in its heartland area.

The Society has reviewed rates for many of its existing products, reducing these by 0.10% – 0.30%, and refreshed some end dates and early repayment charges. The review serves as a reminder of Ipswich Building Society’s commitment to supporting mortgage misfits – those who find themselves otherwise overlooked by high street lenders – with these lower rates available for shared ownership, large loan, self-employed and contractor applicants.

Paul Winter, CEO of Ipswich Building Society, commented on the revised product range: “As with all mortgage applications we apply a manual underwriting process to give a fair assessment of affordability, and offer an alternative to the ‘computer says no’ approach used by many high street lenders. Our inclusive approach to lending means we will continue to innovate, refreshing our range to allow access to the widest possible group of borrowers and continuing to meet the needs of mortgage misfits.”
