Bath Building Society Mortgages

...An excellent local Building Society that prides itself on quality of service.

Since my mortgage will be a large proportion of my income again I wanted to have some security that interest rates wouldn't rise too much so I decided on a capped or fixed rate - the schemes offered by the Coventry Building Society are; Capped - 5.99% until 31.8.05 Fixed - 5.75% until 30.9.02 They also do some competitive discounted rates; 1.10% discounted until 30.9.04 2.25% discounted until 30.9.02 Plus a couple of stepped discounted rates. The icing on the cake is that Coventry is still a mutual building society and you will benefit from any windfall from conversion! They also have a very user... Read review
