ARCHIVE: Two-year mortgage rates hit record lows
Latest data from Moneyfacts shows that two-year mortgage rates have hit record lows. Driven by the increasing competition amongst lenders, the data shows that the average two-year fixed rate has fallen from 2.55% to 2.26% during the last year*.
What this means for home buyers and owners
Adam Nanson from Your Mortgage Expert comments:
“We have been talking about low interest rates for some time, while the Bank of England Base rate remains low and lenders compete for business. It means that clients remortgaging have often been saving money on their monthly bills.
“However, whether the Bank of England raise the base rate or not, realistically, mortgage rates can’t get any lower. And, it may only be a matter of time before they go back up. It may, therefore, be a prudent time to look at your mortgage to see whether switching to a new deal could save you money.”
How Your Mortgage Expert can help
Adam Nanson continues:
“The main reason we find for people not remortgaging to a new deal is that they simply don’t have time and think it will be a lot of hassle. However, if a new deal could save you money, it might be a good time to speak to an independent mortgage broker like Your Mortgage Expert who can help take the time and stress out of switching your mortgage.
“We can research the market to find all the current deals and can make the most appropriate recommendation for you based on your circumstances. Some of the deals we have access to may only be available through independent mortgage advisers like us. And, if it doesn’t make financial sense for you to switch your mortgage deal, we’ll let you know. Or, if switching to a new deal with your existing provider is also appropriate, we can help facilitate that too.”
