Thinking of using a remortgage to pay off your credit cards and debts? 🏠💳

It can be a savvy financial move for some, but it's not without its drawbacks. Before you decide, consider the pros and cons:

Pros:

✅ Lower Interest Rates - A remortgage could offer a lower interest rate compared to high-interest credit cards, potentially saving you money in the long run.

✅ Single Monthly Payment - Simplify your finances with one manageable monthly payment instead of several.

✅ Improved Cash Flow - Free up some monthly income by reducing the amount you pay towards debts.

Cons:

❗ Long-Term Costs - Spreading the repayment over the term of a mortgage could mean paying more interest over time.

❗ Home at Risk - Remember, you're securing debt against your home. If you can't keep up with payments, your home may be at risk.

❗ Fees - Watch out for any fees associated with remortgaging that might impact the cost benefits.

Think carefully and seek financial advice to make sure it's the right step for your situation.

How long does the whole remortgage process take from start to finish?

The remortgage process typically takes from 4 to 8 weeks after you apply. However, it can take longer so it’s a good idea to factor in extra time.

We advise that we lock in a deal for you around 6 months before your current deal is due to end. If rates go up during those 6 months, you can sit happy knowing that you have the deal we locked in for you 6 months ago! 😊

Let’s talk about Insurance!

❓❓ If you have a pet, do you have pet insurance?... Of course you do.

Why?... Because you love them and want to provide them with the care they need in the event of a serious illness or accident.

❓❓ So let me ask you, do you love your home?

❓❓ So why wouldn’t you have critical illness insurance?

This would provide you with a lump sum payment in the event of a critical illness, which you could use to pay off your mortgage and even provide additional funds to help you make adaptions to your home should you need to.

The last thing you would want to do is loose your home or have to sell it as it’s no longer suitable for you, whilst dealing with having a critical illness.

Do you feel that you can’t afford a mortgage due to the high interest rates? Despite recent increases to the Bank of England Base Rate, the interest rates actually being offered by lenders have fallen significantly over the last few months.

It has been a wonderful feeling these last few weeks to let my customers know that their monthly payments are going to be substantially lower than they originally thought.

Maybe your new home is closer than you think!

Please get in touch to find out what’s available for your circumstances ☎️

The benefits of personal mortgage advice:

• Information tailored to the particular needs and requirements of your individual situation.
• Specialist knowledge of issues which could hinder an application - this could range from affordability to unusual construction types.
• Liasing with lenders & underwriters to navigate particular criteria.
•Finding the best mortgage FOR YOU. The best rate according to an online comparison site may not be the best for you. The cheapest rate is no good if you go through the application process only to find your situation does not meet the lender's criteria.
•Guidance throughout the whole process, whether you're a first time buyer or looking to remortgage.
•Finding the best mortgage for you from across the market. Advice is unbiased and not just limited to one lender.
• Life insurance, income protection & critical illness cover to supplement your mortgage if required.

Please get in touch for a no obligation assessment of your circumstances.

This is really great news. Please get in touch for further details……..

Yesterday the Bank of England increased the Base Rate to 4% in what was an expected move to help keep a check on inflation.

It’s important to understand however that whilst the media headlines can seem scary, what is often overlooked is that the interest rates actually offered by lenders continue to fall since the peak in early autumn.

So whether you’re looking to purchase your first home, move to a new property or you'd like to find a new deal for your current mortgage, the market is still open for business and I am here to help. It may just be more affordable than you believe.

Struggling to get a mortgage?

Some first time buyers under or over estimate how much they can borrow. Lenders will usually lend around 5 times the amount of an applicant(s)'s income. The
"times (x) salary" amount could be higher or lower however, depending on level of income & deposit. So if you earn £25,000 a year and hope to buy a property over £125,000 (average UK house price now £296,000) you can see how important deposits are in your purchase ability, to cover the rest of the purchase price.

In the current cost of living climate, saving for a deposit is no easy task, but having an idea of what may be available to you can help you realise a realistic position of your buying potential.

If you'd like to discuss your current options or possibilities for the future, please get in touch for a no-obligation chat.

The Bank of England meet tomorrow, and there is a strong indication that they will raise the base rate again. However, it’s important to understand that this does not reflect what we have seen in the mortgage market in recent weeks- where interest rates offered by lenders have fallen substantially since the peak in early autumn, due to increased confidence in base rate stability.

So whether you’re looking to purchase your first home, moving to a new property or you'd like to find a new deal for your current mortgage, the market is still open for business and I am here to help.
