FAQ’S

Can I take my current mortgage with me?

Porting a mortgage refers to the process of transferring your existing mortgage term, rate, and balance to a new property, provided it remains affordable and the loan-to-value ratio is not negatively impacted. For instance, if the new home is worth less than the current mortgage, the lender may reject the application. It’s crucial to note that porting is treated as a new mortgage application, meaning the lender has the discretion to deny the request if it doesn’t meet their criteria.

What are my mortgage options if I’m moving?

Mortgage lenders typically offer two options: porting your existing mortgage to a new property or paying off the current debt and securing a new mortgage with either your current lender or a new one. In cases where additional borrowing is needed, a new lender might provide more favorable terms for your next home. Given the significant decrease in interest rates over the past decade, it’s wise to review the market before making a decision.

What if I want to move to a new house before I’ve paid off my mortgage?

No problem—there are several options in this situation. The most costly option is paying the lender’s early repayment charge, which is generally a percentage of the remaining mortgage balance and can often amount to thousands of pounds. This route is typically only chosen if no other alternatives are available or if a new mortgage offers substantial savings.

Alternatively, most lenders allow you to port (transfer) your existing mortgage to your new home, which can be a more cost-effective choice.

Do I need to have been contracting for a specific period?
No. We have access to lenders that are happy to assist from Day 1 of your contracting career and assess borrowing based on your contract value, although each lender will have their own set of criteria that you will need to meet. One of our dedicated contractor specialist mortgage consultants will be able to guide you through the options
What are the other charges you have to pay when moving home

When buying your first home in the UK, there are several additional charges to consider beyond the purchase price:

  1. Stamp Duty Land Tax (SDLT): This is a tax on property purchases.
  2. Legal Fees: Solicitors or conveyancers handle the legal aspects of the purchase, including searches and contracts. Fees typically range from £500 to £1,500.
  3. Survey Costs: A survey assesses the property’s condition. Costs vary depending on the survey type, from basic home condition reports to more detailed structural surveys, generally between £300 and £1,000.
  4. Mortgage Arrangement Fees: Lenders may charge fees for setting up the mortgage, which can range from £0 to £2,000. Some mortgages have no fees or offer to add the cost to the loan.
  5. Valuation Fees: Lenders usually require a property valuation to approve the mortgage. This fee is often covered by the borrower and can range from £150 to £1,500.
  6. Removal Costs: The cost of moving your belongings can vary based on distance and volume, typically ranging from £300 to £1,500.
  7. Insurance: Buildings insurance is mandatory, and contents insurance is recommended. Costs vary based on coverage and property value.
  8. Land Registry Fees: This fee is for registering the property in your name and varies based on the property’s value, ranging from £40 to £910.
  9. Ongoing Costs: Don’t forget about ongoing costs like council tax, utilities, and maintenance.

It’s essential to budget for these additional costs to ensure a smooth home-buying process.

How much I can borrow and what will be my monthly payments?

This varies greatly depending on your circumstances—individual lenders use many factors to calculate your borrowing capacity. Use our calculator as a rough guide, but call us for a more accurate figure:

How much can I borrow?

What will be my mortgage interest rate?

The mortgage interest rate depends on multiple factors, including the interest rate set by the Bank of England, your credit score, down payment, loan-to-value (LTV) ratio, and the loan term. Consequently, the interest rate varies for each individual. However, with our experience and strong relationships with contract-friendly lenders, we can find the best deal tailored to your needs.
