We hear this sometimes when we contact our customers whose fixed rates are ending. And while rates coming down would be lovely, we always contact you if your fixed rate is ending five or six months early for a few reasons . . .
1) We secure a rate early so, if rates go up, we have something locked in πͺπ»
2) If we remortgage away, if there are any complications with the solicitor, we have time to get this sorted with no rushβ
3) We make sure we review your rate during the process so, if rates go down, we can get it swapped over for you π
As an example, if you had a Β£200,000 mortgage on a 25 year term with a rate of 4.95%, you'd be paying Β£1,163 a month. The average standard variable rate is 7.13% (Forbes) which would be a payment of Β£1,430. That's Β£267 more interest for falling on the variable rate π°π½
If your fixed rate is ending in February / March next year, get in touch today for no nonsense, fee-free advice π€π»ππ‘π
