Not valid for my current situation, but post is to increase my knowledge
What happens when at the time of mortgage, the loan to be borrowed is £40k or less?
What planning should be done for such scenario? For example, should the term be fixed for a much longer period when the loan amount was above £40k?
Any other thoughts, comments, guidance please..

Generally has to be £25k + so you will be ok.Mortgage started 2020, aiming to clear it in 2026.0

Remaining with your existing lender will probably be the most appropriate course of action. Remortgaging to another lender may cost too much to gain any benefit. Your existing lender will still offer products than other the SVR.0

Size of loan is just one factor in making the choice and plays a small part of the process.
Primary thing it determines is fee or no fee.
(most likely no fee)
Max payment you want to make tends to be the primary driver as that determines minimum term.
Rates available might mean you can save at higher rates.
By now borrower should have migrated to one of the lenders with good retention deal record.
(not Halifax)
There are 2 main strategies for a mortgage near end of life.
Take advantage of the lowest rate to bring the capital down quicker.
Typically 2y fix.
Go longer fix and forget.0
