You will need to treck around the various lenders to get an idea, or consult the services of an independant mortgage advisor.
NO! do not go for the lowest rate, as this might not be suitable for your needs. you must arrange an interview with a lender who will give you an overview of all the products as one product for you might not be good for anyone else. e.g. you might want to pay some off, a low fixed rate might not give you this opportunity so see all options first.
