My mortgage fixed rate matures 29 Feb 2020. That is 6 months 3 days away.
Masthaven looks to have a minimum fix of 1.73% for 6 months. Im cutting it fine!!
With the Virgin and Marcus accounts is looks like I could earn slightly less interest (1.5%) but take out the money exactly when I need it? (For example a week before my morgage fixed rate matures).
What would you do?0 -
We were able to renew our fixed rate three months early with Nationwide. Is that an option for you?0

With my mortgage, i can take out a new deal 3 months before end date, and overpay as much as I want within the last month. If yours is the same then you really only could have 5 months. In with case I'd probably opt for Marcus as 0.25% for upto 6 months isnt that much of a great deal in the grand scheme of things.0 -
