Why Should I Switch My Mortgage?
Reduce Your Mortgage Costs
In the face of rising living expenses, switching to a more favourable mortgage rate is an effective way to lower your monthly expenses. As the largest monthly household expense, even a 1% reduction in interest rate can lead to substantial savings over the mortgage term.
Switching mortgages is now a hassle-free process that can translate into significant savings. The actual amount saved will depend on various factors. However, research from the Central Bank of Ireland indicates that 3 out of 5 people in Ireland can save €1,000 or more within the first year of switching. Furthermore, over 60% of switched mortgages are over €10,000 cheaper over the remaining loan term.
For instance, consider a mortgage of €300,000 with an average interest rate of 4.5% over 25 years, which translates to monthly payments of €1,668. By switching to a 3.5% interest rate, monthly repayments reduce to €1,501, leading to monthly savings of €167, annual savings of €2,004, and an astonishing €50,100 over 25 years.
