    I am a FTB - got my mortgage offer through Nationwide at the beginning of August, £168,700 mortgage, 85% LTV, 2 year fixed... also through a broker.
    I wanted 90% but my affordability was not high enough, and those where I would have afforded it took their 90%s off market.
    2.14% with no product fees and £500 cashback. Unfortunately I think over the last few weeks the rates have jumped up ~0.4% from what I can see.  :/
