With a hybrid Chelsea Building Society mortgage you can both track and fix.
A Chelsea Building Society mortgage may provide the answer if you are undecided as to whether a fixed or tracker deal is best. The lender offers hybrid products which combine the best aspects of both fixed and tracker mortgages.
A hybrid mortgage offers an initial fixed rate followed by a tracker rate offered for a specific term. Often the initial interest rates are lower than those offered on standard fixed deals. The fixed or tracker period can be two, three, five or even up to ten years and can be followed by a further fixed rate or tracker period.
In many instances the rate charged can be capped on a hybrid mortgage and this can help protect you if interest rates were to rise sharply. At Deal Direct we are seeing an increase in the number of lenders offering hybrid mortgages which is due to their affordability and reduced risk compared to other types of deals.
