Tracker Mortgages
A tracker mortgage has an interest rate that moves directly in line with the Bank of England base rate. When the base rate goes up, your mortgage rate and monthly payments increase. When it goes down, you pay less. This transparency makes tracker mortgages popular with borrowers who want a clear, predictable link between their rate and the wider economy.

Tracker Mortgage Advice
A tracker mortgage has an interest rate that moves directly in line with the Bank of England base rate. When the base rate goes up, your mortgage rate and monthly payments increase. When it goes down, you pay less. This transparency makes tracker mortgages popular with borrowers who want a clear, predictable link between their rate and the wider economy.
Tracker mortgages typically come with a set margin above the base rate, for example base rate plus 0.75%. Unlike a standard variable rate, which your lender can change at any time, a tracker rate can only move when the base rate itself changes. This gives you a level of certainty about how your rate is set.
At Clearview Mortgage Solutions, our advisers can help you decide whether a tracker mortgage suits your financial situation and risk appetite. We compare tracker deals across 90+ UK lenders to find the right product for you.
