Hi all,

I am looking at switching my mortgage deal as my current fixed deal is coming to an end with Nationwide. As our current LTV is about 81% I was thinking of making an over payment to get the LTV ratio down to under 80% thinking we might get better rates but this doesn't seem to be the case anymore.

I was wondering, at what LTV thresholds does the rate go down does anyone know please? - Is it 95%, 90%, 75%, 60%.. ? Or does it vary with different lenders?

Thank you

    Or does it vary with different lenders?

    each lender have their own sweet spots

    Some lenders the sweet spot will be different for different fix terms

    Also mortgage size can be a factor some lenders smaller loans higher rates.

    eg nationwide 5y fixes fee/no fee
    75% 1.99%/2.19%
    90% 2.74%/2.94%
    95% 4.54%/4.74%
