Cheap Contractor Mortgage Deals
We have had some of the best cheap contractor mortgage deals we have ever had over the past few years. Mortgage rates have been unbelievably low, historically, in recent years.
This was caused by the savage economic downturn and efforts by the Bank of England to boost the economy by keeping interest rates at their lowest rates ever.
