Mortgages

A mortgage is a loan you use to buy a property. You usually pay back the amount you borrow as well as interest over a set time. You pay back part of your mortgage every month for a certain number of years. Most people take out their first mortgage for 25 to 30 years.

What are the different types of home buyers?

There are three main types of home buyers:

  • First time buyers.
  • Those purchasing their next home.
  • Those buying outright using cash, often investors.

What kind of Mortgages are there?

Depending on your business plans, you might use the cash, to refurbish your premises, to purchase or develop property, buy new machinery, or invest in state-of-the-art equipment.

Here are the main types of mortgage options available when considering moving home mortgages:

Tracker Mortgages:
Tracker mortgages track the Bank of England base rate, apply it, and add the additional set percentage rate from the lender.

Fixed Rate Mortgages:
A fixed rate mortgage means that your monthly payments are the same amount each month, regardless of what’s happening to the Bank of England base rate or the property market. Most common fixed terms are 2 /5 years and revert to variable once fixed the fixed term ends.

Discounted Mortgages:
Discounted mortgages offer an upfront discount off the lender’s Standard Variable Rate (SVR). This is usually for the first few years of your mortgage deal, before it switched back to the SVR. Discount rates can still go up or down.

Capped Mortgages:
A capped rate mortgage is on a variable rate, so your monthly repayments can fluctuate. However, the capped rate will never go above a certain limit.

 

Choosing the right mortgage deal is essential.
