In a time where we are seeing the lowest UK home owner rates ever why is it that people are just staying put rather than looking at options? Is it convenience? Not being aware? Not interested in lower rate? What are your thoughts?

8 年i think its a combination of not being aware of the options that may be available and the general malaise of thinking they will just "wait and see" what happens with brexit/rates and a few other variables we have at the moment.
