Frequently Asked Questions

The amount you repay on your mortgage each month is influenced by several key factors. The primary factors are the amount you’ve borrowed, the interest rate on your mortgage, and the length of your mortgage term.
A larger loan or a higher interest rate will result in higher monthly repayments, while a shorter loan term means you’ll pay more each month but less overall in interest.
Other factors can include the type of mortgage you have—fixed-rate or variable—as well as any changes in interest rates if you’re on a tracker or variable-rate mortgage.
Additional costs such as insurance or service fees, depending on the property and lender, may also affect your overall monthly payments.
Yes, the type of mortgage you choose has a direct impact on your repayments. With a fixed-rate mortgage, your repayments stay the same throughout the fixed term, providing stability and making budgeting easier.
On the other hand, with a tracker mortgage, your repayments can fluctuate as they are tied to the Bank of England’s base rate, meaning they can rise or fall depending on interest rate changes.
