Mortgage Review

Reasons why you may need to review your mortgage

There are many reasons why you may review your mortgage options, a few examples include:
DEFAULT OPTION, LIKELY HIGHER COST

Doing Nothing

If you let your deal lapse without acting, you’ll typically be moved onto your lender’s standard variable rate. With rates currently higher than most homeowners are used to, that can mean a significant jump in monthly repayments — and most lenders won’t proactively tell you if a better deal becomes available.

Timeframes

How early can I start considering my mortgage options?

Most lenders allow you to lock in a rate up to six months before your deal ends. There are several benefits to securing a mortgage rate early, especially considering that many options will have free valuations and lender fees that are payable on completion.
If you do secure a rate early, some lenders allow you to switch rate if a better one is available with the same lender. Alternatively, you can switch to another lender too if they offer a better rate or deal, however you should consider the costs and circumstances of doing so.
It typically takes two to three months to complete on a mortgage from offer to completion subject to solicitor involvement. Your Private Finance consultant will endeavour to keep an eye on rates until completion and advise if there are preferable options available to you during this time.

Switching to a lower rate could potentially save you thousands over the fixed term period of a mortgage. It is important to note that most lenders will not monitor the market for you or let you know if a better deal has entered the market. 

With so many options available it can be confusing to know which mortgage option is right for you. This is why it’s important to choose the right mortgage adviser to help you navigate the market.

The process

Is your mortgage deal coming to an end?

Currently, average mortgage rates are higher than most people are used to and it is likely that when your current deal expires, your new mortgage rate will be higher.
It is important to get in touch with a mortgage consultant at least six months before your current deal ends. This is to ensure that you have enough time to arrange a new mortgage and not risk closing any doors by leaving this too late. Staying with your current lender could mean being put on a high standard variable rate.
Your Private Finance consultant will help you consider your options before your current deal expires and find a new mortgage early. They will also help you compare thousands of remortgage deals across the whole of the market with independent trusted advice.

Your Mortgage

Choosing the right mortgage for you

In a higher interest rate environment and fast changing mortgage market, it can be difficult to know whether it is better to fix your mortgage or choose a more flexible variable rate option.
Fixed and variable rate mortgages both have their benefits and drawbacks, and where one option may be suitable for one person, it may not be suitable for another. Some lenders will also offer a split mortgage, with part of the loan on a fixed rate and part on a tracker rate.

Frequently Asked Questions

A standard variable rate (SVR) is a type of variable rate mortgage where the interest rate is set by the lender and can vary over time. Standard variable rate mortgages are often the default rate that borrowers move to once their initial fixed or discounted rate period ends. Borrowers on a standard variable rate mortgage are likely to be paying more interest than necessary.
An early repayment charge (ERC) is a fee that a borrower may be required to pay to their mortgage lender if they pay off their mortgage loan before a specified period, typically before the end of the mortgage’s fixed or discounted rate period. The specific terms and conditions related to early repayment charges can vary depending on the mortgage agreement and the lender’s policies.
