We’ll do everything we can to keep your monthly payments

as low as possible.

Remortgaging means replacing your existing mortgage with a new one. This could involve switching to a different lender or choosing a new deal with your current provider.

Since there are costs involved in the process, it’s important to assess whether remortgaging is the right financial decision for you. Our experts can help you evaluate your options and guide you accordingly.

Save Money with a Better Rate
Many mortgages start with a fixed rate and later move to a Standard Variable Rate (SVR), which is often higher. Switching to a new deal could help you secure a lower interest rate and reduce your monthly payments. However, as there may be fees involved, it’s wise to seek professional advice to ensure the savings outweigh the costs.

Switch to a Fixed-Rate Mortgage
Moving from a variable rate to a fixed-rate mortgage can provide stability and predictable monthly payments. This makes budgeting easier and offers peace of mind, knowing exactly how much you’ll pay each month.

Home Improvements
Remortgaging can release funds to finance renovations or upgrades. Investing in your property may increase its value over time, making it a smart long-term decision.

Access to Additional Funds (Capital Raise)
If you need a lump sum—for example, for a wedding, supporting family, helping with a deposit, or starting a business—remortgaging can allow you to release equity from your home. Keep in mind, this may increase your monthly repayments and reduce your overall equity.

Buy Another Property
Remortgaging can help you unlock funds to invest in a second property. Whether it’s for personal use or a buy-to-let investment, it can be a step toward building additional income or expanding your portfolio.

Because remortgaging involves fees and financial considerations, it’s essential to review your situation carefully. Get in touch with our team for a free, no-obligation consultation—we’ll help you decide if it’s the right move for you.

Stamp Duty Rates for a Single Property

If the property you are purchasing will be your only residential property, the following stamp duty rates will apply. However, if you already own another residential property, an additional 3% surcharge is usually added to these rates.

Stamp Duty Land Tax (SDLT) Rates:

  • Up to £250,000 → 0%
  • £250,001 to £925,000 → 5%
  • £925,001 to £1.5 million → 10%
  • Above £1.5 million → 12%

Example Calculation

Let’s say you purchase a property for £295,000 in October 2022. Your stamp duty would be calculated as follows:

  • 0% on the first £250,000 = £0
  • 5% on the remaining £45,000 = £2,250

Total Stamp Duty payable: £2,250

If you’re transferring your mortgage to a new deal with either a different lender or the same lender, here are the steps you need to follow.

Approaching the End of Your Fixed Term

As your fixed-rate period comes to an end, your monthly repayments may increase when you move onto your lender’s standard variable rate. Rather than simply accepting their next offer—which may not be the most competitive—we explore a range of remortgage options tailored to your needs.

Speaking with us early can give you peace of mind, help you maintain a stable monthly budget, and potentially save you a significant amount over time.

Moving into a Better LTV Band

If you’ve made overpayments, paid off a lump sum, or your property value has increased, you may now qualify for a lower loan-to-value (LTV) band.

A lower LTV often means access to better mortgage deals and lower interest rates. We’ll review your situation, check for any early repayment charges, and calculate how much you could potentially save each month by remortgaging at the right time.

Releasing Equity for Other Priorities

If you’ve built up equity in your home, remortgaging can allow you to access those funds for a variety of purposes. This could include home improvements, extensions, or consolidating existing debts.

Using your home equity can often provide more competitive interest rates compared to personal loans or other borrowing options. We’ll carefully assess your circumstances and walk you through all available remortgage options, ensuring you fully understand the benefits and implications before making a decision.
