Does Lloyds offer the best mortgage deals?

Anna McClean, Market Analyst

Anna McClean, Market Analyst, says: 'We analysed thousands of mortgages, using Moneyfacts data, over three months in the summer/autumn of 2026. We created 28 mortgage scenarios, based on typical loan amounts, term lengths and mortgage products, to reveal the lenders that consistently offer the best deals. Ranking first means the provider offered, on average, the cheapest mortgage deals during our analysis period. Lloyds came joint second overall, meaning it had some of the cheapest deals in our analysis. The bank did particularly well for first-time buyer and home mover offers. It just missed out on becoming a WRP because its customer service star rating did not meet our criteria.'

Here's how Lloyds did in our analysis:

  • Overall ranking: joint 2nd out of 69 lenders
  • First-time buyer ranking: joint 1st out of 65 lenders
  • Home mover ranking: joint 2nd out of 50 lenders
  • Remortgage ranking: joint 8th out of 68 lenders.
