Remortgaging makes most people want to bury their heads in the sand, but it’s actually very similar to the process you went through when completing your original mortgage application. The good news then, is you’re not going in blind this time. That said, it’s important to get it right, which is exactly what we’re here for.

Everything was explained to me clearly and broken down into language I could understand. All my questions, however small, were answered in a timely fashion and communication was easy and quick. I felt that I received personal service. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend The Levels Financial. I dealt with Janek and Helen, both of whom were knowledgeable, patient and efficient.

This is the second time Edd has sorted our mortgage, and once again he has secured us the best deal possible. He kept in regular contact with us throughout the entire process, which made everything feel manageable and far less stressful. During what can be a very worrying time, Edd provided reassurance at every step. He took the time to find the best lender for our circumstances and secured us the most competitive rate. We genuinely couldn’t have done it without him.

Having never been through the remortgaging process before, the levels walked us through everything with patience and understanding, whilst getting things turned around super quick. Would highly recommend to anyone looking to move / remortgage! In short, Jess smashed it. We were super keen to get everything locked in as quickly as possible due to interest rate rises, and she got everything across the line for us in the time frame we needed. Jess, thank you so much. You smashed it!

I'm not sure they ever stop working, as they always seem to be available on the end of a phone!! would not hesitate to recommend The Levels to anyone needing a mortgage or remortgage. The service provided is truly excellent and I will definitely be using them again.

Remortgaging is the process of paying off your existing mortgage and replacing it with a new one on the same property. This can be either with the same lender or a different one.
Remortgaging takes anywhere between four and eight weeks, though this can vary. Just as no two financial situations are the same, there’s no fixed timeframe, so while this is a useful guide, it’s not a guarantee.
As a rule of thumb, it’s worth starting the remortgage process around six month before your current deal comes to an end. This gives you plenty of time to weigh up your options, secure a rate, and avoid slipping on a standard variable rate (SVR), which can be considerably more expensive.
Remortgaging can come with a few costs depending on your situation, so it’s worth factoring these in from the outset:
Early repayment charge (if you’re switching before your current deal ends)
A product fee if changing lender
Conveyancing and valuation fee
Changing jobs can affect your remortgage application. If you’ve changed rolls or increased your earnings in full-time employment, you’ll need to provide your current employer’s details on your mortgage application. Meanwhile, if you’ve moved to part time work or your wages have decreased in a new role, the amount you can borrow will be impacted. These are different rules for those who are self-employed or on maternity leave when remortgaging.
Yes, absolutely. Whether your credit score has improved or dipped, remortgage options are very much still on the table. We work with a broad range of lenders who cater to all kinds of circumstances, so our focus is on finding the right fit for where you are today, not where you were two, three or five years ago.
Your credit score can change without you even realising, so it’s worth checking it as early as possible before you remortgage. Click the link below to check yours for free! *The Levels Financial will receive a £12 referral fee from CheckmyFile when you sign up for the free trial.
Remortgaging is the perfect opportunity to review your current protection and ensure it’s as effective as it needs to be, both in terms of cost and cover. Our specialist protection advisors can take a look completely free of charge.
