  • Take a real example. Monthly repayments on a mortgage of £225,562, with a 25-year term, and an interest rate of 0.5% are £800.

    To increase repayments to £2,000 per month, the interest rate would need to increase to 9.69%.

    In other words, this didn't happen.

  • It will be an interest only mortgage.

  • You can get pretty close without really trying funky stuff.

    £220k @ 1% is ~ £800/month
    £220k @ 8.5% (some banks have SVR around this) ~ £1,800/month

    If he can't remortgage for some reason then he can end up stuck on SVR. It's been happening to a lot of people.
