Entries (RSS)UK interest rates lowest since 1951
Interest rates were cut by another percentage point on Thursday 4th December. This now brings the Bank of England base rate down to 2%. The last time the UK had a base rate of 2% was in 1951- 57 years ago.
The European Central bank also cut its main policy rate by 0.75% to 2.5%- the largest reduction ever.
The Financial Times reported that financial markets expect UK rates to fall to 1% in the months to come.
But how good will this be for mortgage borrowers?
As the FT reported, not all banks are going to pass on the full reduction. For example, Halifax cut its standard variable rate by only 0.25%, stating the need to balance “the interest of its customers with the commercial imperative of managing its business in a sustainable and prudent fashion.”

I bought a house a few years ago and was still in school. They took an estimate of when I would start having to repay the loans, at the time it was about 2 years from the start of the mortgage. So, no they did not add it in to my current expense ration. I would say if the loans will be due in the current future, less than a year, then they would.

The odd thing about credit is that if you don’t have debts you may be regarded as a worse risk than if you have a history of them, If you have debts and a good record of making the due payments on them, you show yourself to be unafraid of commiting to borrowing and to have a responsible attitude towards repayment. If you have no debts there is nothing on which to assess your reliability.
