What does it mean for my mortgage as the Bank of England holds UK interest rates at 0.5%

The Bank of England has left interest rates at 0.5% this month, giving homeowners and buyers a few more months to consider switching to a fixed-rate mortgage, if they haven’t done so already!

Experts have predicted that this slowdown will be temporary, so an interest rate rise is expected towards the end of this year.

A fixed-term mortgage deal will shield homeowners against interest rate rises for a given period of time..usually two, five or  even 10 years.

If you’re reaching the end of your current mortgage agreement, it should be a top priority to think about remortgaging rather than revert to a lender’s expensive standard variable rate.

Shorter term two-year fixed rates will remain the lowest on offer keeping ones costs down, we are also seeing more and more people consider the merit of fixing for longer terms
