Re-Mortgages
For those that are unsure what a re-mortgage is, it’s when you take out a new mortgage to replace your existing one on the property you already own. People do this for a variety of reasons as it can have big benefits.
Re-mortgaging should be something that is on your mind just as your car insurance is. You wouldn’t let your current car insurer just renew your policy when you can possibly get a better deal elsewhere.
There can be a number of factors why people choose to re-mortgage their home. For some, simply reducing their monthly payments, or ensuring they stay as low as possible is the priority. For others the reason may be releasing the equity they’ve built up in their home or changing the terms of the mortgage to make it better suit their current circumstances.
If your mortgage deal is due to finish in the next few months, timing is important. Getting a new deal in place before your current one ends means you can avoid paying a lenders standard rate which can be more expensive.
An example of deals where re-mortgage timing may be important are Fixed Rate Mortgages which typically run for a set term of between 2 and 10 years. They then transfer to the lender’s standard variable rate of interest (SVR) which is probably higher. If your current mortgage is on a fixed rate deal, when you get to the end of the deal period you need to review and possibly re-mortgage if you don’t want to be moved onto the Standard Variable Rate.
There are many factors involved in getting a new mortgage, and the process may seem complex and time consuming. If you approach your current Lender for a new deal, they’re likely to only suggest their own rates.
