Fixed rate interest only mortgage

I only have 4years left to run on my mortgage. I am trying to find a fixed rate, no fee, no penalty for early repayment, interest only mortgage for the remainder of the period but because the outstanding debt is under £50,000 (£44,500) I am having difficulty finding a mortgage lender who is competitive. My current lender's interest rate is 5.50%. Any suggestions?

    Could you extend the length of the mortgage term and then still pay it up early as you planned in the 4 years?

    If this is possible?

  • That's what I thought might be possible but the main barrier to getting a good deal sseems to be the amount, under £50,000.
