The best remortgage deals available to you are here…

By remortgaging, you’ll be presented with the latest options on the market, including products with the most competitive rates and repayments. Options could include flexible remortgage deals that allow you to make overpayments or underpayments, and there are options to take payment breaks that may better suit your financial circumstances.

When your current mortgage deal ends, your lender will normally put you on a Standard Variable Rate (SVR), which can be a higher rate than you are paying now, so by switching to a new deal you could avoid a rise in monthly repayments.

The value of your property may have gone up too, increasing your equity. This could put you on a lower loan-to-value (LTV) band, which means you will have a greater choice of products and be eligible for a competitive rate.

You could decide to pay off your mortgage at any time, but most homeowners do this when their current deal ends, to avoid early settlement fees. The best time to start looking for a new remortgage deal is up to 6 months before your current deal ends. This allows you to review rates and consider changing circumstances that may affect the mortgage type or amount you may require. You can also apply and hold your deal until it’s time to start your new repayments.

Yes. Many people will have equity in their home, which is the amount left over once the mortgage is paid off. Homeowners often use this capital to raise additional funds they may need. Many people use the funds to pay for home improvements or clear debts on loans or credit cards. It’s an opportunity to literally wipe the slate clean and refresh your finances.

Of course the new mortgage repayments may be more than your current deal, but rates could be a lot more favourable than other forms of loan or finance, so this needs to be considered if you do need to raise funds.

When moving from your current mortgage deal to a new one, there are certain fees and charges that you will pay, whether you stay with an existing lender or go with a new one. Some brokers may offer fee-free deals or there could be a range of different fees and charges to pay, including arrangement, early-exit, legal, administration and valuation fees.

A new remortgage deal can usually be completed in four to six weeks from application, however it depends on your personal circumstances. For example, do you want to borrow more than the current mortgage, have there been changes in property value or household income? So with minimal change in personal finances you can expect your deal to progress in just a few weeks.
