Nationwide rates

Good morning.
just wondering if anyone knows/has heads up on nationwide reducing rates

fixed rate ends very soon and looks like I can only stay with nationwide due to affordability.

currently 4.6% but can change this if a better rate pops up. But noticed a few of the other big players have started reducing rates by a fair bit.

fingers crossed nationwide make a cut soon. 

So just wondering if anyone knows of anything?  

Thanks

  • I’m in the same boat! I have to fix by 24th Jan. They are normally quick at responding to other drops this one has been particularly slow and I am constantly refreshing the pages and news!

    Have you spoken to a broker, or are you making an assumption? Personally I would speak to a broker and see what options you have. 

    With regard to Nationwide, anyone posting on here would be pure speculation, no one with sight of Nationwide's future lending plans would be posting that information on here.

    TMW Nationwide's BTL arm has cuts today so we may see Nationwide reductions before the weekend.

  • Looks like it's happening tomorrow. MSE forums aren't letting me post a link, but various news outlets are reporting that rates will be cut significantly  :)
