In October, we experienced a significant level of uncertainty in the mortgage market resulting in lenders withdrawing a number of residential mortgage products.
In the immediate aftermath of the ‘mini-budget’, 5-year fixed mortgages hit rates above 6%, creating anxiety for existing borrowers who were considering refinancing options.
Since then, the combination of Rishi Sunak and Jeremy Hunt has brought some stability to the market and we are now beginning to see rates drop.
