John is quite right, negative equity does need to be a problem, unless you want to sell your house.

However, many people are concerned about what will happen when their current mortgage deal comes to an end. Being in negative equity can be a problem when it comes to remortgaging, and so many people will have to revert to their lender's Standard Variable Rate. Currently this may well be a good option, as some SVRs are lower than many fixed rates, but what about when interest rates rise again?

We have started using a scheme that allows you to use "hedging" to remove the risk of interest rate rises. With this scheme it does not matter what type of mortgage you have, which mortgage lender you are with, or if you have no equity (or even negative equity). You simply pay a fee and the hedging company takes all the interest risk.

Keep up the good work John.
