Britannia mortgage rates
Mortgage rates vary significantly from lender to lender and depending on which mortgage product you choose. If you are not happy with the rate you are paying on your Britannia mortgage, or are looking to find the best deal on a new mortgage, there are various options to consider.
Fixed rate mortgages
A fixed rate mortgage will give you a set interest rate to pay for the first few years of your mortgage. The fixed rate normally lasts for anywhere from 2 years to 10 years, after which you will normally switch to a Standard Variable Rate of interest.
Fixed rate mortgages are good for those who want to know exactly how much they will be paying each month and are a sensible choice when mortgage rates are low.
Tracker mortgages
Tracker mortgages tie your mortgage rate to the Bank of England Base Rate (or an equivalent), which means your interest rate will rise or fall in line with the base rate you are tracking. The rate you pay will be set at a fixed interval above the base rate e.g. 0.50%. If the current base rate is 0.25%,, then you will pay 0.75%. Whereas, if the base rate rises to 0.50%, you will pay 1.00% and so on.
Tracker mortgages are good for people who want to make sure their interest rate stays broadly in line with inflation. They tend to start off at a lower interest rate than fixed rate mortgages, but the interest rate can rise or fall, making the amount you end up repaying less predictable.
When to remortgage
Many people with a fixed or tracker rate mortgage fail to remortgage when their fixed or tracker rate ends, meaning they end up paying more than they need to.
Make sure to check the terms of your mortgage and see what conditions there are on remortgaging – some deals will require you to keep the mortgage for a certain period after the fixed or tracker rate ends, while others will let you remortgage to a better deal straightaway.
