According to recent reports, the 25-year fixed-rate mortgage loan offered by Nationwide is set to be withdrawn from the market on Thursday May 3rd.
Nationwide created the mortgages to offer borrowers long-term fixed stability. The new mortgage had flexible aspects also, giving borrowers the chance to shift their mortgage without any problems after a ten-year period.
Apparently, many consumers took out the mortgage loans, and the lender’s funding has now been sold out, causing it to be pulled from the market. The divisional director for mortgages at Nationwide, Matthew Carter, reportedly commented that the group hoped: "to be able to re-launch the product soon, providing we are able to secure a competitive rate on the money markets."
In conclusion, he said: "Nationwide remains committed to offering long-term good value to its members and we are pleased our borrowers have been able to realise the benefits of mutuality as a result of this product."
