Hundreds of mortgage deals vanish from market days after mini-budget

Hundreds of mortgage deals have vanished from the market in recent days amid wider economic turmoil following the government’s mini-budget set out last week.

Market analysis by Moneyfacts.co.uk last Friday, 23 September - the day of Kwasi Kwarteng’s announcement - showed that 3,961 residential mortgage products were available.

Just three days later the total had fallen to 3,880, and shrunk further to 3,596 deals on Tuesday.
