WHEN TO START LOOKING

When Should You Review Your Remortgage Options?

If your current mortgage deal is coming to an end, it is usually sensible to start reviewing your options several months in advance. That gives you time to compare your existing lender’s options, consider whether switching lender may be suitable and understand any fees or early repayment charges.

01

Six Months Before

Start reviewing your current mortgage, any end date and whether early repayment charges may apply.

02

Compare Your Options

We’ll help you compare staying with your current lender against remortgaging with a new lender.

03

Plan Before Your Deal Ends

Planning ahead can help you avoid drifting onto your lender’s standard variable rate unintentionally.

Product Transfer

Staying with your current lender may be quicker, but it is still worth checking whether it is suitable.

Remortgage

Switching lender may give you access to different options, subject to affordability and lender criteria.

Did you know?

You may be able to secure a new mortgage deal before your current one ends, with the new deal completing at the right time. We’ll help you understand the timing and any costs involved.

UNDERSTANDING THE COSTS

What Costs Should You Consider When Remortgaging?

Remortgaging is not just about finding a new interest rate. Fees, incentives and any charges from your current lender can all affect the overall cost, so it is important to look at the full picture before making a decision.

Valuation

Some lenders include a free valuation, while others may charge depending on the mortgage product and property.

Typical examples: free lender valuation, paid valuation, automated valuation

Legal Fees

Some remortgage products include legal work, although this varies between lenders and products.

Typical examples: free legal work, solicitor fees, title checks
£

Product Fees

Some mortgages include arrangement or product fees. We’ll help you understand the overall cost.

Typical examples: arrangement fee, product fee, added-to-loan fee
!

Early Repayment Charges

If you are still within your current mortgage deal, early repayment charges may apply before switching.

Typical examples: ERCs, exit fees, deal end-date considerations

Broker Fees

We’ll explain any broker fees clearly before you decide whether to proceed.

Typical examples: adviser fee, application support, mortgage review

Lender Incentives

Depending on the product, some lenders may offer incentives such as cashback or free valuations.

Typical examples: cashback, free valuation, legal incentives

Before changing your mortgage…

The lowest interest rate is not always the lowest overall cost. We’ll help you understand the complete picture, including product fees, lender incentives and any early repayment charges, so you can make an informed decision.

Not sure which mortgage option is right for you? Book an initial conversation and we’ll help you understand the next steps.

When should I start looking for a remortgage?
Most lenders allow you to secure a new mortgage several months before your current deal ends. Starting early gives you time to understand your options and avoid moving onto your lender’s Standard Variable Rate if that is not the right option for you.
Can I stay with my current lender?
Yes. This is often known as a product transfer. Depending on your circumstances, staying with your current lender may be suitable, but it is worth reviewing the alternatives before making a decision.
Will I need a valuation?
This depends on the lender and mortgage product. Some lenders use automated valuations, while others may arrange a physical property valuation.
Are there fees when remortgaging?
Some mortgages include arrangement fees, valuation fees or legal costs, although many lenders include incentives such as free valuations or legal work. We’ll explain any costs clearly before you proceed.
Can I borrow more when I remortgage?
Depending on your circumstances and the lender’s criteria, it may be possible to increase your borrowing when you remortgage. We’ll discuss your plans and explain the options available.
Will checking my options affect my credit score?
Discussing your options with us will not affect your credit score. If you decide to apply for a mortgage, the lender may carry out a credit search as part of their assessment.
How long does a remortgage take?
Timescales vary depending on the lender and your circumstances, but many remortgages complete within four to eight weeks. We’ll keep you updated throughout the process.
How do I know which mortgage is right for me?
