Secure a Better Deal with Remortgaging
Discover the advantages of remortgaging with expert advice and clear guidance. We help you reduce monthly payments, consolidate debt, or access equity by recommending suitable options to support your financial future.
Remortgaging involves switching your current mortgage to a new one, either with your existing lender or a different one. This is usually to secure a better interest rate or access equity.
Assessing
The first step in the remortgaging process involves assessing your current mortgage and financial situation. This includes reviewing the terms of your existing mortgage, such as the interest rate, remaining balance, and any early repayment charges.
Comparing Options
Once you've assessed your current mortgage and financial situation, the next step is to compare mortgage offers from different lenders. This involves researching and comparing interest rates, fees, and terms of various mortgage products.
Application & Approval
After we have recommended a mortgage offer, you'll need to apply for the new mortgage. This involves submitting an application to the lender, providing necessary documentation (such as proof of income, credit history, and property details), and undergoing a property valuation.
Think carefully before securing debts against your home. Your home may be repossessed if you do not keep up repayments on your mortgage or any other debt secured on it.
Please note that some mortgages such as commercial BTLs are not regulated by the FCA.
Benefits of Remortgaging

Lower Monthly Payments
Remortgaging can potentially lower your monthly mortgage payments if you secure a new mortgage with a lower interest rate than your current one. This can free up extra cash each month for other expenses or savings goals.
Access to Equity
Remortgaging allows you to access the equity built up in your home over time. By refinancing with a higher loan amount, you can access a lump sum of cash that can be used for home improvements, debt consolidation, or other financial needs.
Flexibility and Better Terms
Remortgaging provides an opportunity to switch to a mortgage product with more favorable terms or features, such as a longer or shorter loan term, fixed or variable interest rates, or the ability to make overpayments without penalty.
Potential Savings Over Time
By securing a lower interest rate through remortgaging, you can potentially save money over the long term on interest payments. Even a small decrease in your interest rate can result in significant savings over the life of your mortgage.
Factors to Consider When Remortgaging
Explore the factors to consider when remortgaging your home and make informed decisions about your financial future.
Current Interest Rates
Compare current interest rates with the rate on your existing mortgage. If interest rates have fallen since you took out your mortgage, you may be able to secure a lower rate by remortgaging, potentially saving you money on interest payments over the life of the loan.
Remaining Term of Your Existing Mortgage:
Consider how many years are left on your current mortgage term. If you're nearing the end of your mortgage term, it may be a good time to remortgage to secure a new deal before reverting to your lender's standard variable rate (SVR), which is typically higher.
Early Repayment Charges (ERCs):
Check if your current mortgage has any early repayment charges(ERCs) for paying off your mortgage early or switching to a new lender. These charges can vary depending on the terms of your mortgage and may impact the cost-effectiveness of remortgaging.
Equity in Your Property:
Evaluate how much equity you have in your property. Equity is the difference between the current market value of your home and the outstanding balance on your mortgage. Remortgaging can allow you to access this equity for home improvements, debt consolidation, or other financial needs.
Think carefully before securing other debts against your home.
Consolidating debt may reduce your outgoings now, however you may pay more interest over your mortgage term.
Your home may be repossessed if you do not keep up repayments on your mortgage
