For movers, the 5-year fix is often the most natural choice — it covers the period when life is most likely to be in flux post-move, from decorating budgets to school fees to career changes, and keeps the mortgage payment out of the equation. Because movers typically arrive with equity from a sale, they tend to sit in lower LTV bands than first-time buyers, which means the 5-year market here is often priced more sharply than the same term on the first-time buyer table. Use the LTV filter to confirm which band your equity buys.
Porting a 5-year fix to a new property is straightforward if the loan size stays roughly flat — the existing rate moves with you. Where it gets complicated is the top-up: any additional borrowing is priced as a second sub-account at the rate available today, on its own 5-year clock. If your ported deal has, say, three years left, you’ll end up with a 5-year sub-account finishing two years after the ported portion. That misalignment means you’ll be negotiating a partial remortgage at year three rather than a clean refinance of the whole loan. A shorter top-up term — 2 or 3 years — could realign both sub-accounts at a single future date.
We ingest the data ourselves

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.
