That compares to a typical rise of £120 for those getting a new deal between the end of 2022 and end of 2024.More than eight in 10 mortgage customers have fixed-rate deals.The interest rate on this kind of mortgage does not change until the deal expires, usually after two or five years, and a new one is chosen to replace it.
