What Do These Changes Mean for Borrowers?

Virgin Money’s rate reductions bring highly competitive choices for:

  • First-time buyers: Lower rates at higher LTVs (e.g., 90% and 95%) allow for smaller deposits and potentially lower monthly payments.
  • Home movers and remortgagers: Reduced rates at 65% and 75% LTV reward those with larger equity, making now a great time for securing fixed repayments.
  • Buy-to-let landlords: Lower BTL rates especially at 60% and 75% LTV improve yields and can support portfolio growth or refinancing.
  • Fee-saver options: Provide flexibility to limit upfront costs, suitable for cashflow-conscious borrowers.

Special Promotions and Unique Features

Exclusive deals: Virgin Money continues to offer exclusive fixed-rate options for purchase customers, including special fee-saver products for those seeking to minimise upfront costs.

Product withdrawals: The notice for the withdrawn 95% LTV 2-Year Fixed Fee-Saver highlights the importance of acting quickly if specific deals match your needs.
