The Bank of England reduced base rate to 4.5%

So....what does that mean for you?

If you are on a variable rate then your payment will reduce and you should expect to hear from your lender......you may still be paying more than you need to so please get in touch and I can review it for you.

If you are in a fixed rate then your payments stay the same until your fixed rate ends.....if you want to chat about anything though please reach out and I can talk you through what the options are if you're thinking of moving house or raising capital.

If you are a first time buyer then it may mean your budget has increased slightly as affordability will be slightly better if lenders reduce their rates.

There are obviously a lot of 'ifs' here but I am here to help and chat through any of these or other scenarios

Hey folks

So today is the day the Bank of England announce what they are doing with the base rate level - it is the day that us Mortgage Advisers wait with baited breathe for as it can mean a number of things for us........

Today they have held the rate at 5.25%

What does that mean though? So basically it leaves rates fairly static in the marketplace, had they dropped the rate we may have seen banks reduce their rates and if it had gone up the other way around.

However I feel it it is important to point out that many lenders fixed rates continue to be lower than the bank of England base rate and there is usually a number of other factors including market share and global markets which affect the actual rate you will be offered.

My advice is always to deal with what you have available at the time of application and then if rates reduce your broker will make sure that you get a better rate if available to you and your circumstances.

Hey folks

Just wanted to come on and discuss that it is all over the media about rates rising and to say it is important to get in touch with your adviser before worrying about this information as always the media also isn't quite to quick to advise when they come down the way and it's not always as bad as is being portrayed.

Yes they are rising but not with all lenders and at the same time other lenders are bringing out new products with 1% deposits and 5 year rates with only 2 years Early repayment charges so there is still a wide range of mortgages for all circumstances.

Rates will go up and down and there are a number of factors affecting it but remember it is always down to your own individual circumstances so don't let the media scare you away from your life goals and financial needs.

Your home may be at risk if you do not keep up repayments and terms and conditions apply for certain deals.
