90% LTV Remortgage Deals ????

Options
I am looking to move away from Northern Rocks SVR onto a 5 year fixed rate deal at 90% LTV ( borrowing around £193000 over 22 years )
As we still have a large amount outstanding I feel it would be safest to tie into a 5 year deal and ride out the storm.
I have around £125000 lump sum coming my way in 10 years which I will use at least half to pay off part of the mortgage outstanding at that time.
Can anyone suggest the best 5 year fixed deal at the minute please.........thanks

    Hi Marple

    You say '90% LTV' - on what valuation are you basing this on - i.e. estate agent etc.? This is important because at 90% even a slight down-valuation by a surveyor would mean a decline.

    That is a very important point raised by Andy.

    Also, the rates on those 90% deals are not that fantastic

    Do you have a good credit history?

    What are your incomes?

    Re the house value I am being conservative re the 90% LTV....we will just squeeze in if we get our house valued at £220K....we in a micro market area and last year we before the bubble burst we were valued £240k

    Thanks
