I’d like to know more about remortgaging my home

Remortgaging – essentially switching your existing mortgage to a new deal with a new lender – offers a range of possible solutions. You’re not moving house, and the new mortgage is still secured against the same property. It’s a way to free up some equity, whether it’s for home improvements, repaying loans or credit cards, buying something nice like a new car or purchasing another property.  We may also be able to help you get a better rate or extend the mortgage term.

We pride ourselves with looking after our members and supporting new borrowers on their home ownership journey. However, we have suspended our direct mortgage appointments at this time, except where you are:

• looking for a self-build mortgage or
• are an existing borrower with us.

We will continue to accept mortgage applications where the advice has been provided by a mortgage intermediary (also known as a mortgage broker).

Key Features

  • This scheme is available on remortgages only.
  • The minimum loan amount is £30,000.
  • The maximum loan amount is £500,000.00
  • The maximum loan to value is 90%.
  • Part repayment and part interest only mortgages available.
  • An early repayment charge will be payable if the mortgage is redeemed within the first two years. The early repayment charge will be equivalent to 2% of the capital repaid less the permitted 10% overpayment allowance in the first year and 1% of the capital  repaid less the permitted 10% overpayment allowance in the second year. Overpayments (monthly or lump sum) up to a total of 10% of the outstanding loan per year are allowed without charge. Any amount repaid over the 10% limit will incur an early repayment charge of 2% on the excess amount in year 1 and 1% on the excess amount in year 2.
  • The title of the property to be mortgaged, must be registered at the land registry prior to making an application. The Society will pay the legal costs (including disbursements) if using the Society’s nominated solicitors, who will act for both the Society and borrower(s). This is on the assumption that the transaction is uncomplicated. For mortgage applications where additional legal work is required, you will be liable for the cost of additional legal fees, but these will be agreed between you and the Solicitors before the additional work is carried out. Once legal works have commenced if you withdraw from the transaction or fail to take up the mortgage advance then you will become responsible for all the legal costs without a contribution from the Society.
  • Where any part of the loan is arranged on an interest only basis, the interest only element must not exceed 50% LTV. A suitable repayment vehicle sufficient to cover the interest only part of the loan needs to be in place.
  • This product may be withdrawn without notice.

Fees

  • For properties valued up to £1m, the Society will meet the cost of one mortgage valuation.
  • Mortgage exit fee – £50.00. Payable upon redemption of the mortgage.
  • Higher Lending Charge – Variable. Applicable if you borrow over 80% of the value of the property. This will be paid by us.

Representative Example

A mortgage of £141,500 payable over 17 years on our discounted rate for 2 years at 2.25% below the Society’s current variable rate, making the current rate payable 5.49% (variable), and then on our current variable rate of 7.74% (variable) for the remaining 15 years would require 24 monthly payments of £1,068.42 and 180 monthly payments of £1,231.05 plus one initial interest payment of £319.25. The total amount payable would be £247,660.07 made up of the loan amount plus interest (£106,110.07) and a mortgage exit fee of £50.

The overall cost for comparison is 7.4% APRC representative.
