Why switching to your lender’s SVR would be an expensive mistake.

For home-owners approaching the end of a fixed term it might be tempting to sit back, do nothing and switch on to your lender’s standard variable rate mortgage. However while this might be easy, it’s far from financially prudent. 

Mortgage rates remain at record lows. The best 2 year fixed rates sit below 1%, 5 year fixed rates below 2% and 10 year fixed rates below 3% - so how do lenders SVRs compare?

Not very well, as SVRs tend to be set anywhere from 4% up to a massive 6%. In addition, with an SVR you are also at risk of your lender increasing their rate at any time – there are cases of SVRs rising even though interest rates haven’t.

The question you need to ask yourself is - do you really want to sit back do nothing and end up paying far more for your home than you need to?
