At what mortgage rate are you now?

Our 5 year fix for mortgage is coming to end in Dec and we are at 1.6% right now. We have a good LTV, around 45% remaining mortgage on the house value.
We have been looking around and the best rates we can find are around still at 3.8-3.9%.
If you renewed your mortgage recently, what rate are you on at now?

I got 1.9% on a 10 year fix at end of 2021. Probably the best financial decision I've made!

Your lender either hates you or wants to employ you, with foresight like that 😂

2.19%, 3 years into a 10 year fixed rate. When it ends, we'll pay off the last £30k.

4.69 from a 2023 product. I hope when this five year fix ends we can get something better.

Yes will be - we are at the start of a 30 year term 😥

Oh I’m sorry, that’s tough.

I have 4.3% on 225k with payments of £1600. I’m confused! Is it that mine has 16 years to go?

IwasDueANameChange · 11/07/2025 23:12

2.9% but fix ends soon. Expecting to go to 3.8-4%.

cadburyegg · 11/07/2025 23:10

I fixed in October 2023 at 4.36% for 5 years. That was with a broker too, so best deal I could get at the time. I was previously on 1.79%

Wolfpinkola · 11/07/2025 23:05

4.12% I was pretty happy with that

True. Forgot to mention our 4.07% rate was with no fee. We could have got a slightly lower rate if we paid a fee, but with the amount we're borrrowing, we save more if we don't pay a fee and go for a slightly higher rate.

Exactly ... everyone has different situations with their LTVs, time left to run on the mortgage term, whether they paid a fee or not, etc.

HeyThereDelila · 11/07/2025 22:44

Just fixed at 4.1% for two years.

CalmFox · 11/07/2025 22:25

0.99% fixed for 5 years, ends Feb 27. We were lucky, we made the enquiry 5 days before Santander removed this rate offer. We increased our repayments by £100 ish but reduced our term by 5 years with this rate, and will be left with 7 years.

brunettemic · 11/07/2025 22:19

I doubt you’ll get better than 3.8%, I think that’s what we’ve just fixed at. We’re well past the lowest 60/40 LTV point (partly because the bank WAY overvalues our house). We fixed for 5 years because rates are highly unlikely to fall dramatically and it makes life easier.

Twiglets1 · 11/07/2025 20:53

It’s hard to say because people are just giving the very basic details.

Like I posted saying my daughter got 3.9% very recently but she did have to pay 1k in fees so not as good as it seems.

4.18 fixed for 5 years last summer no fees. We stayed with the same lender to avoid loads of paperwork.

I'm buying a house and just got the mortgage application approved. The rate is 4.07% fixed for 2 years. We are hoping rates might improve a bit by then, but who knows. Oh and our LTV is very low (20%) so I'm wondering if we should have got a better rate based on the fact that some of you got under 4% recently.

wherethecityis · 11/07/2025 20:50

We've just applied for one at 4% exactly - it was the cheapest we could find (that didn't have product fees)

MysticHalfWitch · 11/07/2025 14:37

For once I got lucky and fixed three years ago at 2.09% for 10 years.

Same. I read a post on here and we bought out our mortgage which had 6 months extra remaining. Cost us £2k at the time but will save us close to £500 a month. Insane.

DirtyBird · 11/07/2025 20:08

Mine is 3.25 and fixed until it's paid off

Digdongdoo · 11/07/2025 19:57

A horrifying 5.74%. Not long left at this rate though! But we only bought in 2022 and it's still less than our rent was.

IHeartFridays · 11/07/2025 19:51

Remortgaged in February at 3.69%. Deliberated a lot at the term - went for 5 years. That was brokered back in November though. Before that I was on a tracker which really really hurt.

Panicmode1 · 11/07/2025 19:51

Just been quoted 3.99 or 4.14 for a 5 year fix - we have a decent LTV and I think could do better if we moved from our current lender but DH was made redundant and has been out of work for a year now so we would fail affordability criteria ATM so have to stay put.....

We did the same two years ago at 2.74... Now trying to overpay as much as possible so in 8 years it will be gone!

Same!!
