Re-mortgages - understand your existing mortgage
If you are thinking about re-mortgaging the first thing you need to do is make sure you understand your existing mortgage payment terms. Any early repayment charges that you may face (fees you pay for repaying the mortgage early) might outweigh the benefits of re-mortgaging at the current time.
Any borrowers currently on fixed, capped or discounted mortgages are likely to encounter early repayment charges for moving a mortgage. Nearly all mortgages that offer such 'special' rates will also charge penalty interest for moving your debt during the special rate period.
Some mortgage deals also come with 'overhangs'. In these deals the borrower's mortgage is tied to the lender's standard variable rate for a set period of time after their fixed, capped or discount incentive rate expires. Any move to re-mortgage during this overhanging period would also attract early repayment charges.
So, you need to know what kind of mortgage you already have. You must be able to answer these questions:
- Are you in a special rate deal - if so for how long?
- If you are no longer paying a special rate, are you in an overhang period?
- What penalty payment, if any, will be required to move your mortgage?
