Re-Mortgaging help!

Hi i was hoping for some advice about re-mortgaging my house.
My house is prob worth about £140,000 and i have a mortgage for £103,500.
I would like to fix my mortgage for as long as possible really as i am off to Australia soon and my mum is going to live in my house.
I dont want a buy to let mortgage and i want to keep it simple.
One of the reasons i want to lock in as long as possible is because i worry about re-mortgaging in the future due to no longer working or living in this country and i want a some time to get my career going again before i have to worry about my place in the UK.
I have done some comparisons which suggests the 5 year deal with the post office might be the best.
I am after a repayment mortgage over 25 years. The only issue with the post office is its fixed at one rate for a few years and then ups to nearly another £100 a month for the remainder.
I would rather it keep a steady rate throughout so the repayment are the same throughout the term.
Any advice would be amazing.
Thanks guys

Find a lender with a decent five year fix and a below-average follow-on rate or historically low standard variable?I am a mortgage broker.

Thats the problem i have. I am not very good at understanding all this stuff?
Anyone point me in the right direction of the best mortgage deal for my situation.

Take care, as the action you are proposing could be seen by a lender as fraudulent.0

Kingstreet has given you some useful pointers, if you want much more then your probably best speaking to a broker.
As let us see has said, this action could e seen as fraudulent so you need to give it some thought.0
