    Now would be a good time to start looking.
    Offer validity varies lender to lender.
    Speak to a decent broker who can find a suitable product for you. (Also check what your current lender will offer you)

    What is your LTV - what will your new rate be (SVR) - who is your lender?

    I'm in the same situation, and to be honest, I'm crapping myself about it.

    It depends, as said above, on 2 things. Your LTV and your present lenders SVR. A couple of mine recently ran out and I moved on to BOE +2% so quite happy at the moment. Obviously when rates rise again things could get tricky.
