What is a fixed rate mortgage?

Unlike discounted or tracker mortgages, a fixed rate mortgage means that you will pay the same amount of interest for an agreed time (usually 1-5 years). Often the rates are slightly higher than a variable loan, but they offer the security of knowing that if interest rates go up, your repayments will remain the same.

Pros and cons of a fixed rate mortgage...

 One of the most popular types of mortgage with first time buyers, as it offers stability and allows you to control your budget more effectively.

 This also makes it the favourite choice of young families and single homeowners who don’t want to take the risk of a large rise in interest rates - which would mean an increase in monthly repayment amounts.

 If you expect there to be changes in your financial circumstances in the near future, a fixed rate is usually the best option.

 However - if interest rates fall, you won’t see the benefit.

 When your fixed term ends, your payments may rise as you switch to the normal variable rate.
