What this means for people

A higher quoted rate means a new fixed mortgage costs more each month. People already on a fix do not pay it until their deal ends.

The loan in this average is 75% of the property’s value. It is the rate lenders quote, not the average rate people are already paying.

How to read this

A quoted rate

This is an average of rates lenders quote for a two-year fix at 75% of the property value. The rate a household is offered can be higher or lower.

Home mortgages

Home mortgages from banks and building societies. Other deals, like five-year fixes, aren't included.

Not seasonally adjusted

Not seasonally adjusted: compare with the same month last year.

Often follows Bank Rate, with a lag

Quoted mortgage rates tend to move with Bank Rate, but not always by the same amount or in the same month.
