Michelle Andrews, HSBC UK’s Head of Buying A Home, said: “There are lots of different elements to consider when looking for a mortgage to get onto or up the property ladder. Two big considerations are interest rate and how much you can borrow, and these changes will make a big difference.
“Alongside other changes we have recently made, including accepting variable pay as part of a mortgage application, we are excited about continuing to support homeowners and the wider property market.”
