The news is dominated by predictions that the coronavirus will spread through our population in the coming months. As a result, bond yields have dropped below 0.40% this morning.

To avoid high penalties you must request a payout statement from your mortgage lender immediately!
Why?
When bond yield rates drop, this is a signal that mortgage rates will drop soon after. However, bank penalties will rise because they are based on current rates. If you ask your bank for a payout statement immediately, the penalty on that statement will be based on the current rates before rates drop.
