Nationwide’s New Mortgage Rates

All new mortgage ratess taken out from 30 April 2009 will migrate to Nationwide’s new Standard Mortgage Rate (SMR) at the end of the deal period. The variable SMR is currently 3.99%. It offers full flexibility to overpay with no limit (minimum or maximum) and no early repayment charge. Alternatively, customers can choose one of the new mortgage rates available to them at the end of their deal period.

Andy McQueen, mortgage director at Nationwide, said: “Our attractive mortgage range is complemented by a competitive standard mortgage rate. The mortgage market has experienced fundamental changes due to the prevailing economic and market conditions. We are currently in a very low interest rate environment which can be challenging when balancing the needs of both our savers and our borrowers. The new SMR will provide us with more pricing flexibility, something which is essential in helping us to offer our savers more attractive products in the future.
