Does it make sense to pay £1000 for a mortgage product which saves just over £1,400 over 5 years?
I guess discounting the £1,400 back to present value would suggest not. But it still saves actual cash over the term.
What is the alternative, a fee free one fixed at a slightly larger rate?
Yes, that was the idea.
However Nationwide have now decided to give me the lower rate with no fee, and chuck in £100 into the bargain.
Happy days.
