Investment Funds (Resumed): Irish Mortgage Holders Organisation
Mr. James Byrne:
When we saw the rates starting to go up, the first thing we looked for was for it to stop. We looked to arrange a fixed mortgage. If I was still with Permanent TSB or any other bank, I could walk in and arrange for a fixed mortgage and get some sort of clarity and pause, look down the road, take a breath and assess things. We have had eight interest rate rises in eight months.
