"When the first offset mortgage was introduced into the UK in 1997 no one could do an offset mortgage comparison because there was only one product on the market - the Virgin One Account," said Terry Ruddy, Online Marketing Director at The Offset Mortgage Centre, "since then the number and range of offset mortgages has increased to about 250 offset products."

The guide begins by explaining how an offset or flexible mortgage works by giving typical examples that will help with an offset mortgage comparison. The guide also explains how borrowers with current accounts or credit card debt can benefit from on offset mortgage.

The guide then goes on to explain the key factors the borrower must consider when making an offset mortgage comparison such as amount of savings and whether overpayments, underpayments, payment holidays and borrow back features are required.

With many people who take out an offset mortgage able to pay off their mortgage early, in some cases by as much as 8 years, it is clear why offset mortgages are so attractive.
