That's really pants. Sorry to hear that you've been messed around by a tosser that doesn't get how important decisions like this are ( ... )

If you'll remind me what that is, I'll tell you...

Loan to Value: percentage of the property value being mortgaged. It's a figure that makes a huge difference as to what interest rates are offered on mortgages. :o)

Ahh, yes. A hair under 20% now.

Urgh, that Barclays deal does look about the best interest rate with the lowest fee that's readily showing up. The comparison sites bring up a few others just under (3.09% or 3.18% for a two year fix/tracker) but the arrangement fees are much higher ( ... )

PS - Oh, I'm in no way qualified to give mortgage advice, I've just spent a lot of time looking at my own finances recently so am more in that zone than normal. :o)

Thanks for the advice, hun...I'll check their website maybe tonight if I have time (am going to be assembling a portfolio for a job application).
