What is a tracker rate mortgage?

With a tracker mortgage deal your interest rate changes in line with fluctuations in the Bank of England’s base interest rate. Usually, your interest is set at an agreed percentage above the base rate (for example + 0.5%) for an agreed period. There are two main types of tracker. Lifetime agreements last for the entire repayment term, whereas most deals have a tracker period (often 2-5 years) before returning to fixed or standard variable rates.

Is a tracker mortgage deal right for you?

Although they are one of the most popular deals in the current market, trackers aren’t right for everyone. Before choosing your mortgage, you should consider the following tracker advantages and disadvantages:

- When (and if) the base rate falls, your interest payments are reduced too

- However, if the base rate rises, then so do your monthly payments

- Usually, there is a cap on how much more you will pay above the base rate if it rises

- Unlike other flexible interest rate types, with a tracker you won’t suddenly see a change in your outgoings at the whim of the lender

- There may be early repayment or switch penalties

- Often there is a set minimum interest rate, meaning that if the base rate falls below this you won’t see the benefit
