A spike in rates changes the UK property game dramatically, for better or worse, depending on your point of view.

Sometime FT links dont work but basically headline is May Boe rate rise now 'close to zero'... The rate rise Crashy creamed his pants on and was deemed a dead cert... The exact rise I said we have seen it all before Carney will find an excuse not to raise rates..
In 10yrs he has found excuses to keep rates at historic low and you now think there is going to be a sudden spike in rates... Sorry but just like your gamble years ago that house prices would crash its totally nuts and the logic only makes sense to you..0 -

What Carney does or doesn`t do now has as much relevance as Duran Duran releasing a new album, it just isn`t that important any more.0 -
with regards to Carney and his rates, I tied myself into a five year fixed rate 4 years ago after listening to him saying interest rates would be going up and up. :mad: Wasn't it November last year they went up0

I've always looked at fixed rate products as a way to buy security for a fixed term, not to guarantee that you'll beat the prevailing rates.(Nearly) dunroving0 -
