Hi there,
I'm coming to the end of my fixed mortgage soon. My rate was set when interest rates were very high and is 5.99%. when my mortgage deal ends what rate will I end up with if I dont fix again? Will it be a certain amount above the current base rate (whatever that is) or would there be another set rate I will go to from when we took the deal out? Hope this makes sense!!
Thanks

Only you can find out - look at your mortgage documents, or phone up your lender. You'll either be on a tracker, or more likely the lender's SVR.0

It will normally revert to your lender's standard variable rate.
What do your mortgage T&Cs say?
Who is your lender?"One day I realised that when you are lying in your grave, it's no good saying, "I was too shy, too frightened."
Because by then you've blown your chances. That's it."0 -
Thanks guys for the replies, I checked my paperwork and contacted lender (natwest) who have confirmed it will go onto their variable rate once finished unless I go into another deal. :j0

So your rate will drop to 4%, giving you scope to continue making the same level of payment, with part of it overpaying your mortgage so you pay it back quicker than you would normally do.I am a mortgage broker.
