REMORTGAGE FAQs
What exactly is re-mortgaging?
Re-mortgaging simply means changing your mortgage from one lender to another to secure a new rate and potentially change the terms of your mortgage.
Is re-mortgaging the best option for me?
If you’ve come to the end of the introductory rate of your mortgage, it’s likely that you’ll be moved automatically to your provider’s standard variable rate which in most cases is higher and therefore your monthly payments could rise.
By re-mortgaging you could secure a better rate, this could mean that we reduce your mortgage term or your monthly costs go down.
You can also borrow extra funds at the time of the re-mortgage to conduct home improvements, add an extension or help with your current finances.
Alternatively, you might be on a great deal with your current provider, in which case it might not make sense not to switch as you could be tied in with charges to come out early.
What should I do first?
We would advise anyone thinking about re-mortgaging to contact us six months before the end of their current term ends to allow plenty of time to find a deal and get their application approved.
We would also check to make sure what your current provider is offering and if they are offering attractive rates we will let you know and will provide a full service and look after this again for you.
How do I get the best deal?
By shopping around, in the same way you would to get a better car insurance or broadband deal. However, by coming to Firstxtra we will do all the hard work for you and find the best mortgage for your needs.
What else do I need to know?
There may be some fees associated with a re-mortgage, these are normally just a lenders arrangement fee , a broker fee and maybe small legal fees. Many lenders now offer to pay the valuation and legal fees as part of the re-mortgage package.
There could also be early exit fees and penalties for leaving your current provider and we can advise whether or not it would be better for you to pay these or wait until they end.
Think carefully before securing other debts against your property. Your property may be repossessed if you do not keep up repayments on your mortgage
Most Buy to Let mortgages are not regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority
