Mortgage Brain’s product data analysis has shown a number of costs reductions for the most popular 2, 3, and 5-year residential mortgages.
The cost of a 2-year fixed mortgage with a 60% LTV for example is now 3% lower than it was in July and offers borrowers an annualised saving of £198 on a £150,000 mortgage.
Mark Lofthouse, chief executive of Mortgage Brain, said: “With fresh predictions for interest rate rises to start as soon as November, the landscape is expected to change, if and when, we revert back to seeing a period of increases in the cost of residential mortgages.
“All predictions seem to imply that the increases will be low and gradual, however, so I don’t think we’ll see any sudden dramatic changes.
“It will be interesting to see what the trend is at the end of the next quarter.”
