We sit down with Sarah Grace, a specialist mortgage broker who works closely with UK dentists, to unpack what is happening in the mortgage market as a huge wave of borrowers roll off two-year and five-year fixes. If you are moving from a sub-2% deal to something that starts with a four, you are not alone and you are not imagining the shock. We get practical on the decision that matters most right now: fixed rate mortgage versus tracker mortgage. Sarah explains why fixed rates can jump even when base rate holds, how swap rates and the money markets feed into lender pricing, and what that means during periods of global uncertainty. We also talk about the fine print that can save you money later, especially early repayment charges, and why a tracker with no ERC can offer flexibility if you want to switch when the mood changes. For associates and dentists early in their career, we answer a common worry: whether you need two years of accounts to get a mortgage after becoming self-employed. Sarah shares how some lenders can work from three months of pay schedules, how income may be annualised, and how to think about timing when your earnings are still building. Then we go deeper on interest-only mortgages, including equity requirements, lender rules around downsizing as a repayment plan, and alternatives such as using an ISA or an NHS pension tax-free lump sum as the repayment vehicle. ———————————————————————Disclaimer: All content on this channel is for education purposes only and does not constitute an investment recommendation or individual financial advice.
