The number of homeowners seeking a remortgage is increasing.

Remortgage activity in the UK reached its highest point in 9 years in January, according to the latest market reports.

Homeowners, aware of last year’s rise in the base rate and the probability of more rises this year, have been motivated by the uncertainty of the UK economy.

The most popular remortgage options have been 5 and 2 year fixes. Both options give a level of flexibility should circumstances change, but they also bring a level of certainty.

Remortgaging now could help you to save money when compared to the existing rate you are paying. It could also shield you against any further increases in the base rate over the coming months and years. The mortgage rate you fix today will apply for the duration of the term, fixing your monthly repayment without being subject to any increases.

As many lenders are still offering historic-low rates despite last November’s base rate increase, now remains an excellent time to switch to a new deal.
