Me the G/F were looking at trying secure a 75% mortgage and the best fixed rate we found so far was 4.9%. Even with the rates as low as they are you still need a hefty deposit to get them anywhere near a good rate. Pretty crap at the mo imo.

Unfortunately not, we've gone through our IFA who has got the better option for us.

Did you not look at the Post Office and NatWest / RBS. Both doing 5 year fixed 90% LTV with a lower rate than your 6.5%

Ive just had a fixed rate with the Post Office (provided by Bristol & West)
6.01% fixed for 5 years
90% LTV

I know its a high-ish rate but for 90% LTV its about the best, you can get a 3 year fixed for 5.99% but we were advised to go for a 5 year.

probably doesnt apply but I have just come out of a fixed rate

they reckon that I owe 86% of the house value so will not offer a fixed rate

However base rate is 2.5% so it woerks out better for me

If rates increase by 0.5% each time i need 5 changes before i get to what i was paying for my fixed rate

Has anyone found and reasonable mortgage rates yet?
Alot of companies are offering good deals, but with conditions of borrowing rates of 70-80%. With the fall of house prices, this makes taking out the mortgage even harder, pushing your borrow % up.
