NatWest cuts mortgage rates by up to 37bps across residential and buy-to-let

NatWest is cutting mortgage rates by up to 37 basis points, covering both residential and buy-to-let. The biggest move is on its 95% LTV five-year fix, down from 5.76% to 5.39%. It follows HSBC last week. For buyers, it's the first run of meaningful cuts since rates rose in February after the Iran conflict. The picture stays unsettled — swap rates remain higher than the start of the year.
