Life after your Fixed Rate mortgage. Should you stay with your lender?

Staying with your current lender may feel like the saftest option when your mortgage comes to an end, but that’s no guarantee that you’ll be getting the best deal. That’s why we recommend shopping around to get a mortgage that’s fits you.

When there is such uncertainty in the housing market at the moment, you might be thinking that staying put is the right thing to do. It may feel like the easiest, but unless you search the mortgage market thoroughly, you won’t know for certain that you’re on a mortgage deal that is the right deal for you. And staying with your lender doesn’t automatically guarantee this either.

Remortgaging – stick or twist?

If you’re looking to remortage, it will have been a few years since you last went through the process. Your circumstances may have changed during this time, not to mention the changes that have happened to the mortgage market. We all know nothing stays the same, so why should your mortgage? It’s fine for something that worked a few years ago, to not fit quite so perfectly now.

We suggest seeking the help of an experienced mortgage adviser to help with your next remortgaging steps. We have access to a huge variety of mortgage options as well as an extensive panel of lenders. We’ll be able to access specialist search tools to help with the process. We can even find exclusive mortgage options with lenders that you may not have access to.

It might seem daunting looking at the mortgage market now, particularly against a less-than-positive financial climate. It may feel especially tricky if a change in your personal circumstances make you feel like your options are limited – such as a credit blip or redundancy. But it’s important to remember that there are thousands of mortgage choices out there – whatever your situation. And with an expert by your side, you’ll find one that suits you.

We know things may change, and we’ll be right by your side if they do.

One final thing to remember when it comes to remortgaging, is that it isn’t just about comparing the mortgage interest rate, but the mortgage fees that your current lender will charge. If you’re looking to pay less in the long term, then it’s vital to look at the two of these together.
