I am a first time buyer. I need a 95% mortgage amounting to €253,650. My broker has suggested I should go for a 1 year fixed First Active mortgage at 4.34%, which is the cheapest 1 year fixed rate in the country at the moment. However, after 1 year, this would automatically default to a variable rate of 5.03%. This is obviously an introductory rate but should I be wary of going for it? Originally I had been advised to go for a tracker option, but was not keen after hearing the ECB base rate could rise 3 times in the next year (according to ABN Amro),
Thanks
