Thinking about fixing your loan? Here's five questions to ask

Interest rates are creeping up. If you are tempted to lock one in, here are a few things to consider.

Price isn't everything, but it helps to get the best one you can.  At the moment, that might mean taking a short-term rate.

ASB economist Kim Mundy said the one- and two-year rates were still the cheapest at most banks and about 0.8 of a per cent below the floating rate. By contrast, the four- and five-year fixes, while still well below the 10-year average, are higher than the floating rate.
