Cheers for all the contributions to my thread. Interesting stuff. pslewis - great to see you are attempting to talk sense for a change (as I know you can, or maybe not)

...you are assuming a mortgage lasts for 1 day Pete - do you know anyone with a mortgage lending period of 1 day....err, no, neither do I!

My original statement said over a period of 25 years, and the monthly increases are 100% correct in my original statement.....

ie, at the end of this month, someone with an interest only mortgage will pay £20 more, and someone with a repayment will only pay £14 more....

FACT and more to the point, my example is real world!

Now admit you are wrong

So, it's finally begun. It's not a lot but the party is coming to an end. (way after it should have done)

Pretty soon we'll start to find out who's finacially secure and who has been living on credit way above their means.... (X5 owner types spring instantly to mind)

On the radio today 100 grand repayment mortgage will add an extra £20 per month. I foresee a lot of very unhappy people because this is only the start of rises.

@stephen emery.......but if you were selling this house the offers would be ok i guess

Why didn't/haven't you put an offer in then? I've put offers in for houses before viewing a few times, if that's what you have to do in the current market, get in there first and if you change your mind just pull out (oh er missus)

Hmm....seems to be a lot of difference in figures on here (me as well!).

The definitive guide is that (over 25 years) with an increase of 0.25% interest :

Interest only 100k mortgage ---> up £20.83/month
Repayment 100k mortgage ---> up £13.81/month

imlach:- Interest only 100k mortgage ---> up £20.83/month
Repayment 100k mortgage ---> up £13.81/month
------------------------------------------------------------

I would hazard a guess that its the other way around?! Repayment is ALSO the payment of capital, so would be higher!

I agree that the rate needs to go up to 7% to stop the madness in the property market!

The interest part of the mortgage is the SAME surely???

The capital payment makes the repayment method higher

I think I will have to have a lie down if I am wrong!!

The capital payment does not have interest applied to it, and you should note my figures are about increases due to interest....

Nope, nothing to do with the deal you get!

Work it out for yourselves - in fact, this is now a puzzle for you all :-)

I'll post the answer once you're all at your wit's end :-)

Thumbs up

The interest payment on the SAME deal will be the SAME if £100k is still outstanding, with the exception that a repayment mortgage requires a higher payment to re-pay capital!
