What to consider when remortgaging and switching deals.
When remortgaging it is important to consider why you are thinking of switching deals. Are you attempting to reduce your costs or do you want to increase your mortgage to release cash?
If you are remortgaging to cut costs and achieve a better rate you should be looking for a cheaper product. Here the headline rate should be considered along with other factors such as mortgage fees, early redemption charges and lender incentives.
When looking for the cheapest remortgage deal it is essential to review all factors to find out which is actually the most affordable product.
If you are looking to increase your mortgage you might find that you cannot source a cheaper deal than you are on because you will be increasing your outstanding loan which is a higher risk for lenders.
