Nationwide has reduced rates across its two, three and five-year fixed mortgages by as much as 0.38% to start from 4.64%.

This headline rate of 4.64% applies to its five-year fix for new borrowers moving home at 60% loan to value (LTV) with a £999 fee. This has been reduced by 0.1%. 

The two-year fix also at 60% LTV with a £999 fee has been reduced by 0.25% to 4.99%, while the three-year fix has gone down by 0.05% to 4.94%. 

Nationwide said this made it the first major lender to offer a two-year fix below 5%. 

At 85% LTV, a five-year fix for new borrowers moving home with a £999 fee has been cut by 0.16% to 4.94%. 

Rates for first-time buyers have been cut by up to 0.31% up to 95% LTV, including a deal at 90% LTV which is fixed for two years and priced at 5.72% after a 0.18% reduction. This has a £999 fee.
