    No 3-year tracker home mover products cleared our nightly ingest today. This is normal — UK lenders rarely offer 3-year tracker products, and this bucket is empty more often than not. The 2-year tracker market is almost always live and covers the same use case; the closest alternatives are shown below.

    Three-year tracker mortgages are uncommon in the UK residential market. Lenders that offer trackers at all tend to structure them as 2-year deals or as lifetime trackers (which follow base rate for the mortgage’s full term rather than a fixed initial period). The 3-year tracker sits between the two without the specific advantages of either: it doesn’t have the shorter commitment of a 2-year, and it doesn’t have the long-run simplicity of a lifetime deal. As a result, most lenders don’t bother with the product at all, and the table here is empty more often than it is populated.

    For a home mover weighing this term, the underlying logic is sound in theory — three years of floating-rate exposure with a defined exit point — but the shallow product range means you’re unlikely to find a 3-year tracker that beats a 2-year or lifetime equivalent on price. If your reason for wanting a tracker is chain flexibility or ERC-free exit, the 2-year tracker table is almost always better stocked. If your reason is staying variable for longer, a lifetime tracker from your chosen lender may be available where the 3-year product is not.

    We ingest the data ourselves

    Most comparison tables license the same third-party panel. We build ours directly from lender product data, run through our own quality-assurance pipeline — so we sometimes list deals other sites miss.

    Refreshed every night

    Mortgages only

    We're the UK's only mortgage-only comparison site. No credit cards, no car insurance — just every flavour of mortgage, done properly.

    Frequently asked questions

    How these tables work, and how to choose between the deals on them.

    01Why is this table usually empty?
    UK lenders rarely offer 3-year tracker products, particularly in the residential purchase market. Tracker funding is easiest to match at short terms (2 years) or on a lifetime basis, so the 3-year variant doesn’t appear in most lenders’ product ranges at all. This page re-ranks nightly from our lender data ingest — the table fills automatically if a product appears, and empties again when it’s withdrawn. Today, there are simply none available in this segment.
    02What should a home mover do if there are no 3-year tracker deals?
    The 2-year tracker is the natural substitute and is almost always populated — it offers the same ERC-free flexibility across a slightly shorter term. For movers who want a longer floating-rate window, a lifetime tracker (which isn’t term-capped in the same way) may be available from several lenders. Both options are visible in the relevant tables; the ERC terms and margin on each deal are worth comparing directly.
    03Would a 3-year tracker suit a mover with a long chain?
    The appeal of any tracker for a mover mid-chain is the ERC-free exit if things go wrong — a 3-year tracker would offer the same protection as a 2-year one on that front, assuming no ERC terms. The practical issue is simply availability: there is rarely anything here to choose. A 2-year ERC-free tracker solves the same chain-timing problem and is consistently available.
    04Is a lifetime tracker better value than a 3-year tracker for a home mover?
    Lifetime trackers follow base rate for as long as you hold the mortgage, with no defined end date and no reversion to a follow-on rate. That simplicity suits movers comfortable with floating payments over the long term. The margin is typically slightly higher than on a short-term tracker — the lender prices the open-ended commitment. Whether that margin difference matters depends on how long you actually stay; lifetime tracker options are visible in the main rates search.
