Time for a Mortgage Review?
Rates are now 0.1%, the lowest rate ever. There is speculation that this may fall even lower, into negative interest. For those with a fixed rate mortgage (which equates to roughly nine out of 10 new mortgages), there wouldn’t be any change. Those with a Tracker or SVR mortgage are likely to see a little rate cut. Those with savings will be most affected.
A Mortgage Review, by a professional independent mortgage broker, will outline the most suitable overall deal for you in these unusual circumstances.

5 things to consider when looking for a mortgage
- Low rates are important and tend to be what most homeowners base their decisions on.
- As well as finding low rates though, it is vital to find mortgage deals that offer low fees, so that the overall cost of your mortgage is as low as possible.
- Find a lender that has reasonable early repayment fees, so if life takes a different turn you will not be left footing a hefty bill.
- If you are remortgaging, check any early repayment charges on your existing deal too. Sometimes it can benefit you financially to pay these fees to be able to switch to a better rate.
- How is your credit score? This could have an impact on the amount you can borrow and the rate.
- Working with an independent mortgage broker means you have access to all products available on the market.
