2 year fixed rate mortgages remain competitive.
While the news is some lenders have hiked their 3 and 5 year fixed rates, 2 year fixed rate mortgages remain competitive. At present with a large enough deposit (40%) it is possible to get a 2 year fix with a rate as low as 1.48% from lenders such as the West Bromich BS.
Why choose a 2 year fixed rate mortgage?
With a fixed rate deal you have a level of mortgage certainty for the period agreed, monthly repayments stay the same regardless of interest rate changes which allows for better budgeting.
With a 2 year deal you are also able to remortgage more easily and switch to improve your rate, with a longer term deal you have to wait longer to do this.
Comparing all 2 year fixed rate mortgage products is a must if you want to end up with the most competitive deal.
