i was hoping not to get a mortgage but i'll probably need to borrow £20k if i buy the type of house i want. So whats the best type of mortgage if i'm borrowing that amount (variable, fixed, tracker or other) and i want to pay it back ASAP maybe in two years or even less but so i also have the option of taking more time to pay if things goes t!ts up

cheers :)

Easy one this. Doesnt really matter whether you go Fixed or variable. Key ios making sure you do not pay fees.

Abbey do a 3 year tracker with no arrangement fee , free basic valuation and £250 cash back. Rate is 3.09%

If you want me to sort it for you e mail me at chris@your-mortgagecentre.com

Payments on a 5 year term Repayment are £360.17

Would you not feel bad about being a slave to debt?

chisel, £75k mortgage, 16 years...what can you do?

Every 1% move in base rate is about £40 per onth.

If you want a tracker ratet start at about 2.5% with fees to 3.1% with no fees . As this is equivalent of £20 of mortgage payment I think a mortgage with low fees is imperative.

Cost is about £500 for tracker with no fees or Fixed rates are slighty more expensive. Again avoid fees, 2 years shopuld cost £520, 3 years £570 , 4 years £550 (with Fee)
