What is a fixed rate mortgage?

A fixed rate mortgage means your interest rate is fixed for the initial period of the mortgage deal. This means your mortgage payments won't go up or down during this time.

At the end of the initial period, you'll move on to a different rate. This is often our standard variable rate. You can find details about what happens after the initial period in your mortgage illustration.
