(1) Variable rate – you pay an agreed interest rate margin, which is added to reference rates such as the Bank of England Base Rate. This allows you to benefit if interest rates fall, but could leave you exposed to increased repayments if rates rise.

(2) Fixed rate – you have a fixed payment amount so you can be sure of the amount of your repayments for the fixed term. If the loan is repaid early, a prepayment fee will be payable and if you prepay the loan within a fixed rate period, you will also have to pay a fixed rate break fee.
