How to Remortgage Your House
Remortgaging your house – the basics
Basically, a remortgage involves changing your existing mortgage policy. There are an assortment of reasons why you may need to remortgage, some of which could include:
-
Remortgaging to get an improved arrangement and possibly pay less interest every month – this may involve moving to another supplier, or remortgaging with your existing supplier if the value in your home has gone up as you may now be qualified for better interest rates on your mortgage repayments.
-
Remortgaging to get a larger mortgage deal – this can free up more money to go towards debt repayments, purchasing another car, or making home upgrades. Remember that in the event that you need to remortgage to pay off debts, you will be securing the debt against your home, and therefore ought to look for expert financial advice before doing this.
-
Remortgaging for a more adaptable mortgage deal to suit your changing circumstances – remortgaging could give you the capacity to make overpayments or underpayments, take a payment break, change to a different type of repayment plan such as an offset or interest only mortgage, or move from one type of mortgage to another, such as from a fixed rate mortgage to a tracker mortgage.
Why consider a remortgage for your house?
One of the principal motivations to consider remortgaging is to ensure that you are continually getting the best mortgage deal for your circumstances.
As a case in point, in the event that you have had the same mortgage for quite a long while and have paid off a portion of the cash owed, this means that you should now own a greater part of the property (assuming you have been making your repayments in full and on time).
Because of this, you may therefore have the capacity to improve the rate of interest you can get by remortgaging to an arrangement with a lower loan-to-value ratio (LTV).
It could also be a good time to consider remortgaging at the point at which your present mortgage deal’s discounted rate or introductory rate arrives at an end.
Numerous mortgage providers offer an introductory fixed rate for a pre-arranged time after the mortgage is taken out, and once this period is over you could find that your mortgage is uncompetitive compared to other mortgage deals that are available on the market.
Is it generally worth remortgaging your house?
Remortgaging can be a useful approach to accessing extra cash for many property holders, yet it is not necessarily the right decision for everybody.
First off, there will be some expenses when remortgaging your house, for example, for surveys and legal fees, especially if you are moving to another mortgage supplier.
These should be considered and weighed up against the general savings that you will make once you remortgage. A few of the elements that can influence whether remortgaging is fiscally sensible for you could include:
-
The remaining balance of your mortgage – if you have only have a little left to pay off on your mortgage total amount, the sum that you save by remortgaging your house may not be sufficient to make the procedure and expense of a remortgage worth your time
-
How much time is left on your current mortgage deal – If you choose to remortgage and leave a current mortgage deal that is as yet unfinished – for instance, if you would like to leave a five year fixed rate mortgage at an earlier date – then you may be at risk of incurring an exit charge or an early repayment charge (ERC). You should weigh up the expense of this against the potential savings you will make by remortgaging at that specific point in time, rather than sitting tight for your present mortgage arrangement to end, and after that doing the switch.
