HSBC lowered mortgage rates in early 2026 due to a Bank of England rate cut, benefiting millions as refinancing demand remains high.
HSBC has cut mortgage rates in early 2026, marking the first major reductions of the year, with lower fixed rates for existing customers and new borrowers across various loan types.
The moves, driven by the Bank of England’s base rate cut to 3.75%, aim to boost competitiveness and benefit around 1.8 million homeowners refinancing as low-rate deals expire.
While rates remain elevated compared to pre-2022 levels, experts predict further declines, possibly below 3.5% by spring, though long-term rate expectations will limit sharp drops.
Meanwhile, mortgage approvals dipped slightly in November 2025, but demand remains strong, supported by improved affordability and regulatory changes that expanded access for first-time buyers.
