Kensington – a New Option for Clients With a Credit Blip

kensington mortgages logoIntroducing Step Down Fixed Rates –a new option for your clients who may have experienced a credit blip.

Our new 5 year Step Down fixed rate option has been added to our Resi 6 and Resi 12 product ranges, providing an initial fixed rate for the first 2 years, followed by a lower fixed rate for the remaining 3 years. This will give your customers an overall saving compared to the equivalent Resi 6 or Resi 12 5 year fixed rate, and as well as having the security of a 5 year fixed term, they will have the peace of mind that comes from knowing their payment amounts will reduce after 2 years.
