    Nationwide plans rate hike shock
    Homeowners planning to take out a new fixed-rate mortgage deal are being urged to get their skates on following reports that Nationwide is planning to hike its most popular deals.

    well , it certainly appears at the moment there is not going to be no 5 year fixed deals below the 4% mark !!!!! if anything 5 year deals are on the up !!!

    Apart from a few exceptions that I am sure will disappear iminently there aren't any 5 year fixes below 4.75%! All of them now seem to come with hefty product fees!

    3.99% was a cracking deal - particularly with the "free legal".

    IMHO give it another few months and you'll be able to count the number of sub 5%, 5 year fixes on one hand!

    Look how the borrowers quickly jumped on the 3.99%. I think the next step lenders will go down is fee free. Then after that I can see 3.5% coming through no probs...im sure others will have an opinion on that...

    oh dear , i think not ;)

    3 year fix , 4.09% with just a £99 fee :D

    not bad for anyone looking for a decent fix !!

    Up to 4.49% now. Still might be worth a punt at this rate.
