What is a remortgage?
Remortgaging happens when you change the mortgage you currently have on your property, either by switching it to a new lender or by moving to a different deal with your existing lender. It can be a good way to find lower interest rates and better mortgage terms.

Why you might want to remortgage
1. Your current mortgage deal is about to end
When you take out a mortgage, you will usually be given a deal such as a set rate over a number of years. When your current mortgage deal ends, you’ll be put on the provider’s SVR, which is usually higher. Remortgaging can help you stay on a better interest rate.
2. You’re on a high-interest rate
If you’re currently on a variable rate mortgage, a rise in the Bank of England base rate can increase your monthly payments. If you remortgage, you could find a more competitive fixed rate deal instead.
3. Equity Release
Remortgaging allows you to realise equity in your home, allowing you to take out a cash lump sum to pay for home improvements or pay other debts.
4. Increased property value
If your property value has increased, your lower loan-to-value (LTV) might help you qualify for better interest rates.
