Capped rate mortgages are meant to offer you the best of both variable and fixed rate mortgages. You have a limit (a cap) on the maximum amount of interest you will pay over a particular period of time whilst allowing it to fall if the variable rate drops. So effectively it would seem that you cannot lose. If the variable rate goes above your capped rate then you still only pay up t the agreed capped rate, and if the varaiable rate drops you benefit from this as well.
But, the interest rate you pay will tend to be above the average fixed or discounted rate you could otherwise be paying so this may not necessarily be the best deal for you. There is not a great deal of choice in terms of the number of capped rate mortgages available and you are always best discussing this with an independent financial advisor.
