What is the difference between a fixed rate and variable rate mortgage?
Fixed rate mortgage
Choosing a fixed rate mortgage means that you pay a set amount monthly regardless of any interest rate increases or decreases.
It’s important to know when your fixed rate is coming to an end, as you may want to switch mortgage to a new fixed rate.
The majority of our clients are fixing their rate for between 2 and 4 years. At the lowest rate over 30 years, for every €100,000 you borrow, you’d pay €446 per month.
Variable Rate Mortgage
Choosing a variable rate mortgage means that your rate and monthly repayments can increase or decrease over time depending on the interest rate set by the Central Bank.
Variable-rate mortgages are popular when interest rates are lower or are predicted to go down.
Split Rate Mortgage
Some lenders offer a split rate mortgage, simply meaning that part of your mortgage and repayments will be variable, and some of it will be fixed, giving you a level of payment/rate certainty, while allowing you to save money when interest rates are low.
