Remortgaging Explained
What is remortgaging?
If your current mortgage deal is coming to an end and you want to find lower monthly repayments or more suitable terms, you may want to remortgage your home. Owners often choose to do this because they are currently paying high costs on a fixed rate mortgage or want to release some equity for other financial means.
With a more favourable interest rate on a new mortgage, when you switch deals, you’ll be able to pay off your existing mortgage and make savings on your monthly repayments.
When should you remortgage?
Remortgaging could deliver financial benefits if:
- the value of your home has increased significantly.
- your existing mortgage is about to end.
- you want to get a more favourable interest rate.
- you want to borrow a larger sum.
- you want a mortgage with more flexible payment terms.
Remortgaging might not be the best option if:
- your existing mortgage is only small.
- your financial situation has changed since you obtained your mortgage.
- the value of your home is lower than before.
- you’ll face costly early repayment penalties.
How to Remortgage
How much can you borrow?
The amount you can borrow will make a huge difference to the degree of savings you’ll make on your monthly repayments. To calculate how much you can borrow, research how much your home is currently worth. Deduct the total of your remaining mortgage from the current value of your home, and you’ll be left with the amount of equity you own.
You could use the equity to lower the amount you need to borrow or to obtain a mortgage for a higher sum than you need, so you use the excess funds for something else.
Do you have enough equity in the property?
You’ll need to have built up a substantial amount of equity if you want to remortgage successfully. Mortgage lenders assess loan rates in increments of 5%. The loan to property value ratio for your home should drop by at least 5%, ideally more, for you to obtain the savings you want.

Types of Remortgages
Repayment or interest-only mortgages
At the end of your mortgage terms, with a repayment mortgage, the total amount you originally borrowed plus the interest accrued will be fully paid off. If you choose an interest-only mortgage, the monthly repayments may be lower, but you will only have paid off the interest on your mortgage once your mortgage terms finish.
Flexible or non-flexible mortgages
For flexibility in how much you pay each month, you may want to consider a flexible mortgage which could allow you to take payment holidays, make overpayments or underpayments when you need.
Our experienced remortgage advisers in Birmingham will support you through the entire process and help you get the right remortgage deal for your financial situation. Call us today on: 0345 066 6555 or drop in to see us at Coleshill Road, Birmingham.
Think carefully before securing other debts against your home. Your home may be repossessed if you do not keep up repayments on your mortgage.

My house has increased in value. Can I increase the borrowing on my mortgage?
Yes, this is known as releasing equity, but your lender will need to make sure it fits their affordability and credit scoring criteria. This can be achieved in a number of ways, but the two most popular are:
A further advance is where you are looking to borrow more money from your current mortgage lender. This is typically at a different rate to your main mortgage. This route can make sense if your lender's further advance is competitive or your existing mortgage provider has high early repayment charges.
