There are different types of mortgage rates, including:
Mortgage rates are influenced by many factors, and we can’t say for sure whether they’re going to rise or fall. The calculators show our current mortgage rates so you can check the latest deals.
Mortgages rates can be affected by a range of things, from personal details to government decisions. The main factors include:
It depends on the type of mortgage you have. If you have a fixed rate mortgage, your mortgage rate will stay the same for the length of your fixed rate term. If you have a tracker rate, your mortgage rate will increase in line with the Bank of England base rate. So, if it goes up by 0.5%, your mortgage rate will also go up by 0.5%.
If you’re on a Standard Variable Rate (SVR) mortgage, your interest rate is decided by your lender. So, while it’s not directly tied to the base rate, your lender may still choose to increase your mortgage rate if the base rate rises.

It all comes down to your personal circumstances, and the mortgage rates. A shorter fixed term mortgage might give you the chance to switch to a better rate if interest rates start to fall in the next 2 years. A five-year fixed term mortgage can give you an extra level of security, as you know exactly what your rate is for the next 5 years.
Interest rates can be hard to predict, so it’s important to make sure you can afford your mortgage repayments for however long you fix your mortgage for.
