Get a better deal
Have you found a better interest rate? Do you want to release some of the capital in your property? If so, you may want to be considering re-mortgaging your property. Whatever your reason, our friendly Conveyancing team will be able to assist, making the process as stress free as possible.
Re-mortgaging is the process of paying off your current mortgage and moving to another lender. The procedure is similar to that of a purchase, as the new lender will want to know that the security they are lending on is good.
What we do in the re-mortgaging process:
-
Obtain the title deeds and a redemption figure from your current lender;
-
Investigate the title to the property. We may need to apply for searches, in accordance with the requirements of your lender;
-
Consider the mortgage instructions and ensure any conditions are complied with;
-
Agree a completion date;
-
Upon completion, your old mortgage will be redeemed, and the new mortgage will take effect. Any surplus proceeds will then be transferred to you;
-
Deal with the registration at the Land Registry and forward any relevant documents to your lender.
