Riskier product not available for newbuild houses or flats and follows budget offer to back part of the loans
Yorkshire Building Society will become the first lender to relaunch 95% mortgages in the mainstream market, nearly a year after the pandemic spooked lenders into withdrawing low-deposit home loans.
However, the deal will only be available to first-time buyers and the society will apply strict conditions on lending, including ruling out flats and new-build homes.
