Product changes
UK specialist lender Step One Finance Limited (“Step One”) has announced new rates for its product range as well as a number of improvements to its lending criteria.
Highlights include:
- Rate reduction on most products
- Fixed rates extended to 5 years and available at no extra cost to the customer
The new rate reductions will take effect on new loan applications initiated on or after 30 May 2017.
Step One continues with its well acknowledged, flexible and pragmatic approach to underwriting. We seek to deliver a best in class turnaround time for even the most complicated loan inquiries offering quick and reliable answers for customers.
Martin Porter, Head of Lending says: “While some of our competitors are constantly changing criteria and lending terms we try to remain as consistent as we can with a few carefully considered improvements, which means our introducers really know what we’ll do and what we’re good at”.
“We think with interest rates at an all-time historic low, taking a longer or lower fixed rate offers a compelling choice to customers.”
For those that prefer a variable rate, that option is also available with rate reductions.
