Whats the LTV?
Its a little on the high side, but interest only is going to limit your options so probably not excessively so.

Would you qualify for interest only with other big banks? If yes then this rate could probably be beaten. Unless your mortgage is quite small that could mean a lot of money saved over 5 years, even with a small difference in interest rate.If not and your current bank is the only option, then I don't see the point of a 2 year fix (compared to variable) as you'd still be exposed to whatever the rates are in 2 years and pay more over 2 years for that privilege.Do they offer any tracker or discounted variable rates?1
