Martin Richardson, Leeds Building Society’s director of business development, said that borrowers are looking to lock into a low rate. “Longer term fixed rate deals are still popular and we’re seeing strong demand for remortgages while rates are at their current levels.

“By remortgaging to a more competitive deal, homeowners can bring down their repayments and lock in to give them the security of fixing what’s usually their biggest monthly outgoing.

“If repayments are lower they have the choice to overpay by up to 10% and bring down the total length of their mortgage term, which could mean a significant saving overall.”
