What should I do at the End of my Fixed Rate Mortgage?

Any help would be much appreciated!

I currently have a 2 year fixed rate 95% LTV mortgage. This deal is due to end in the next few months and I'm just wondering what I should do. I currently do not have any capital to invest so I'm concerned as to what will happen when my fixed rate ends. Will it be OK to just go onto my lenders SVR at 95% LTV as it would seem there are no decent deals around anymore for such a high LTV?

Thanks! dTm.

    Going onto your current lender's SVR looks the best option, especially if they are one of those that have been passing on the cuts

    What is the current LTV. It could well be higher than 95%.

    Chances are you will have little option but to go on the lender's SVR or take any other deal they might offer you.
