Remortgage FAQs

Common Questions From Remortgage Clients

When should I start looking for a remortgage?

Many lenders allow you to secure a new mortgage up to six months before your current deal ends. Starting early provides more time to compare options and may allow you to secure a competitive rate before any market changes.

What is a product transfer?

A product transfer is where you switch to a new mortgage product with your current lender without moving to another lender. In some cases this can be quicker and involve less paperwork than changing lenders.

Will I need a new property valuation?

Sometimes. Some lenders use an automated valuation, while others arrange a physical inspection depending on the property and application.

Can I release equity from my home?

Potentially. If your property's value has increased or you've reduced your mortgage balance, you may be able to borrow additional funds. The amount available will depend on your income, affordability, property value and lender criteria.

How long does a remortgage take?

Most remortgages complete within four to eight weeks, although this varies depending on the lender, legal work and individual circumstances. Starting early helps avoid unnecessary pressure as your current deal approaches its end date.

Can I remortgage with bad credit?

It may still be possible. Your options will depend on the nature of the credit issue, when it occurred and your current financial position. We'll discuss your circumstances and explain the lenders that may be available.

What happens if I do nothing?

If no new mortgage is arranged, your lender will usually move you onto their Standard Variable Rate (SVR) once your current deal ends. This rate is often higher than fixed-rate products, which may significantly increase your monthly payments.

Is remortgaging worth it?

Every case is different. We'll compare the total cost of staying with your current lender against switching elsewhere, taking into account interest rates, fees, incentives and any early repayment charges. Our aim is to recommend the option that best suits your circumstances.

Should I stay with my current lender?

Not always. Your existing lender may offer competitive product transfer rates, but another lender could provide a more suitable mortgage depending on your circumstances. We'll compare both options before making a recommendation.

Will I need a solicitor to remortgage?

If you're moving to a new lender, legal work is usually required. Many lenders offer free legal services or cashback towards your legal fees.

Can I remortgage before my fixed rate ends?

Yes. Many lenders allow you to secure a new mortgage before your current deal expires. However, switching too early may trigger an early repayment charge, so we'll explain whether it makes financial sense.

Can I borrow more when I remortgage?

Yes, subject to affordability and lender requirements. People commonly borrow extra funds for: Home improvements, Extensions, Debt consolidation (where appropriate), Buying another property, Family financial support and Other acceptable purposes.

Will remortgaging affect my credit score?

Applying for a mortgage usually involves a credit search. Provided applications are managed correctly, remortgaging should not have a significant long-term impact on your credit profile.

Can I remortgage if my circumstances have changed?

Yes. Changes in employment, income, self-employment, maternity leave or retirement do not automatically prevent you from remortgaging. We'll recommend lenders whose criteria may be suitable for your circumstances.

Do I have to pay mortgage fees again?

Some mortgages include arrangement fees, while others do not. Where fees apply, we'll compare whether paying the fee or adding it to the mortgage represents better value overall.
