Default Best Mortgage deals!!

Guys,

My mortgage is nearing the end of its 2 year fixed interest rate, and i therefore need to source a new deal.

Can anyone reccomend some good deals to me or give me examples of what you managed to find!!

This really is such a pain in the arse so any help would be greatly appreciated!!

Cheers,

Mark

how do you go about getting a swap then?
mine is coming up to the end in 4 months and i'm looking and looking, but no one is going to beat a starter rate of 4.29% and, at the moment the replayement is just under a grand with the normla rate going up to 6.9% so i'm looking at another few hundred quid more a month

don't think so

youre right!! you wont get a rate anywhere near 4.29%

best ive managed to get offered is 5.37% thats on a tracker mortgage for 2 years!!

Dojj just get yourself on the net or speak to the guys that jamz posted the link for.

a quick tip....

make sure you sort out your new deal a month BEFORE your current fixed deal ends, as they take about a month to sort out in which case u had left it until the end, you will have to pay the full rate interest to your current lender for at least a month - whichh could be as much as a few hunded quid extra for nothing - just extra interest because your new deal is still being sorted out....
