    Thanks Kingstreet. Is HTB available in Scotland still?
    HTB - Equity Loan isn't, no. Sorry, I missed your post in the middle.

    HTB - Mortgage Guarantee is but that would leave you with rates of around 4.5% - 5.5%

  • Our plan was to go for a 3 year fixed interest. Pay into the mortgage an additional 10% during each of those 3 years then remortgage with greater equity, on a shorter term and hopefully smaller rates. Thoughts?
