Originally posted by @Luís Ferreira:@Rui Dias Costa,When i buy, my strategy to avoid that to happen is to have a "mixed rate", which is 5 years with fixed rate (prety good deals with BankInter and DeutsheBank) and the rest of the contract variable rate.During the 5 years with fixed rate i try to get the loan paid down at least until 60% of LTV.
