remortgaging?

What are the main points to consider when looking to remortgage?

Interest Rate

When you are considering remortgaging, one of the first things you should evaluate is the interest rate being offered by potential lenders. Compare the new rate to your current mortgage rate to see if you can secure a lower rate that would reduce your monthly repayments and the overall cost of your loan. It’s important to think about the type of interest rate you’ll be getting as well. A fixed rate can offer stability, making it easier to plan your finances, while a variable rate may change depending on market conditions, which could impact your payments. Make sure to consider the possibility of future rate changes and select a deal that aligns with your financial situation and risk comfort.

length of term 

Another crucial factor to think about is the length of your mortgage term. While extending the term may reduce your monthly repayments, it could end up costing you more in interest over the life of the loan. On the other hand, if you shorten the term, you may face higher monthly repayments but will pay less interest overall. You should carefully evaluate your current financial situation and long-term goals to decide whether lengthening or shortening the term is the best choice for your budget and future plans.

fees and charges

Lastly, don’t forget to factor in any fees and charges associated with remortgaging. Even though a new mortgage deal might offer a lower interest rate, the costs involved in securing that deal could offset the savings. These fees might include arrangement fees, valuation fees, legal costs, and any early repayment charges on your current mortgage. Before moving forward, make sure to get a full breakdown of all the costs involved so you can compare them with the potential savings of the new mortgage. This will help you make an informed decision about whether remortgaging is truly the right move for you.
