Capped Mortgages
Capped Mortgages are a combination of Fixed Rate and Discount Rate Mortgages and have some attractive features for buyers.
Capped Mortgages have interest rates agreed for a set period, but if the Standard Variable Rate (SVR) drops below that rate, you get to pay the lower amount. If rates go up, you are protected against having to pay the higher rate, because it has been limited or “capped”.
This is how a capped mortgage works: The lenders offer a loan setting a capped rate in a defined period. During this period, the repayments of interest on the loan are limited by the capped rate. The good news come if the standard variable rate of the mortgage falls below this capped rate. In this case the interest rate falls with the variable rate.
