Remortgage

Remortgaging essentially switches your existing mortgage for a new one. It is based on the value of your home, the amount of equity you have, your credit score and the amount you wish to borrow.

A remortgage can help you pay off your debt by:

  • Unlocking home equity to help pay your debt
  • Switching to a cheaper mortgage could help you save money each month
  • These savings can then be used as debt repayment

It is important to consider if you have enough equity in your property before considering remortgaging.  

Your current deal may also not allow you to remortgage or permit additional lending. In this case, you may have to switch mortgage lenders and providers entirely.  

But why choose a remortgage?

Reduces monthly outgoings

Remortgaging lowers your monthly mortgage repayments, freeing up more disposable income for managing debt.

Lower interest rate

Remortgaging secures a new mortgage deal with a lower interest rate.

Simple monthly repayments

Debts are consolidated into your mortgage, simplifying your finances by combining multiple payments into one.
