So I think that the things we will always talk about are what the long term ambitions, how long do they want to be in the home for? And we can only base advice based on where they are at now.

And you use a question of, you know, would you like your interest rates to rise or would you like your payments to increase and so on and so forth to know? what the type of product is that you're going to go for.

But I think in a volatile market and probably over the last seven or eight years, we've probably done more fixed rates than anything else because everybody just wants surety to say, I want to know exactly what my payment's going to be for the next two, three, five years.

But as we work out what's working, what's not working, where the bang for the buck is, you can probably reduce that to somewhere between 5 and 7%.
