There can be hidden costs associated with all mortgage types, and this is also true of tracker mortgages. This article is going to explain what tracker mortgage fees to look out for, and how they can be avoided.
Can I get a tracker mortgage with no fees?
When you commit to a mortgage, the last thing you want to be faced with is unexpected charges.
Tracker mortgages come with an element of risk, and in the event of a sudden soar in the base rate, you may decide that the best course of action is to repay early or switch your deal, and this is when you’re most likely to incur extra charges.
People often ask us if they are able to secure a no-fee or low-fee tracker mortgages. The simple answer is yes, it’s possible, but it all depends on your specific circumstances and which mortgage provider you opt for.

Do tracker mortgages have early repayment charges?
If you’re wondering whether it’s possible to get a tracker mortgage with no early repayment charge (ERC), the answer all comes down to the lender’s terms, and at what point you are within your repayments.
Although many tracker deals will allow you to make overpayments without incurring any charges, there tends to be a limit to how much you can overpay without getting charged, with 10% of the mortgage balance per year on average.
The exception to this is if you’re still within the introductory period. The majority of tracker deals are likely to impose an ERC if you remortgage or repay the mortgage during this time.
However, if you’re past the introductory period, or you’ve moved to the lender’s standard variable rate (SVR), there aren’t normally any early repayment charges for overpayments, remortgaging or paying the loan off early, although this will vary by lender.
If you have a lifetime tracker mortgage, you may be required to pay an ERC within a set period after the deal is taken out.
To find out different lenders’ stances on ERCs, you can contact us to speak with a tracker mortgage specialist who can delve into the fine print and let you know exactly what fees you can expect with particular providers if any. Talking to a broker before you start out could save you time and money in the long run.
Can I get a tracker mortgage with no exit fee?
Regardless of what type of mortgage you have, many lenders will charge an exit fee for closing your account, even if you’re not repaying it early.
Exit fees tend to range between £50 and £300, and your original mortgage contract should detail the cost of any exit fee you will be required to pay when you finish repaying your loan.
In some cases, exit fees will already be covered in your mortgage account fee, as this will usually include set up and maintenance costs, as well as the account closure.
If you’re charged an exit fee that is greater than the fee stated in a lender’s original contract, FSA ruling now permits mortgage customers to ask their lender to refund a portion of their mortgage exit fees.
If you’re keen to avoid these fees altogether, bear in mind that some providers don’t charge anything at all for closing your account.
