Boring thread for a Tuesday - sorry people but as I'm in the process of remortgaging thought I'd chuck this one out there to see what the consensus was.
We were paying best part of a grand a month until my fixed rate expired Dec 09.
Payments have now dropped to around 700 due to current base rate.
We're considering various options such as....
- Carry on with with the expired fixed rate as we're saving shedloads each month
- Switch to a 2yr fixed rate paying more or less what we were before but decreasing the loan period by 5 years.
- Switch to a 2yr tracker (basically the base rate would have to jump by 1.35% in that period for us to be paying what we were previously...)
Not forgetting any of the last 2 options costs around 800quid to setup..
Any opinions on this one folks?
