Hi Watty. I hope so!
Ed who is offering that ?
We have a biggish redemption penalty.0 -
Various lenders, sorry was suggesting you could take 1.2% off - seemed to be plenty of deals for 2.25% or thereabouts for your LTV when I was looking. It would save you a lot of money, mebbe not if you have big fees tying you in.0

I will definitely look into that. Thanks.
Now...0 -
definitely some good rates out there.. we just secured a 2.89% fix with just over 80% LTV so with yours they will be loads better.0

Last time I looked I had a ten grand redemption penalty but worth checking out.0

Ooof that's... A lot!

That *is* a lot! I have a redemption penalty like that on my French apartment, and since the rate of interest I pay is only 1.5% p.a., it doesn't make any sense to redeem.2023: the year I get to buy a car0

Believe it or not, my school house colour was Gold - and that's not the reason I'm called Goldiegirl!
It is a colour I like, fortunately. Our school uniform colour was bottle green, and it's taken 40 years for me to feel comfortable wearing that colour!Early retired - 18th December 2014

Sorry you didn't get the job, but I hope you got your feedback so that you can turn it into an opportunity to inform you for next time. The right job will be out there soon.
Have a restful weekend. Only another week to go.Paid off mortgage nine years early in 2013. Now picking and choosing our work to fit in with the rest of our lives!
Still thrifty though, after all these years:D0 -
Thanks Squirrel. I dont think people give valuably formative feedback as they are too worried about hassle. It tends to be rather anodyne. I hope I am self aware enough to give myself feedback IYSWIM.
Goldie I was the same about navy blue for years!0
