How much will my remortgage cost?

What is remortgaging?

Remortgaging involves switching the mortgage on your current property from one deal to another. You might switch to a new mortgage with your existing lender or take out a new mortgage with a different lender.

Why remortgage?

There are many potential benefits to remortgaging including:

  • Saving money. One of the main reason why many people remortgage is to save money by switching to a new deal instead of paying their lender’s standard variable rate, which can be very expensive. Use this remortgage calculator to instantly see how much you’ll pay each month.
  • You want to overpay on your mortgage by more than your existing lender allows.
  • You want to remortgage to release equity for home improvements.

The best mortgage depends on your personal circumstances. The award-winning expert advisers at Mortgage Advice Bureau will find the right mortgage for you.

How does the remortgage calculator work?

To use the remortgage calculator, simply add:

  • Your outstanding mortgage amount
  • The interest rate you can get on a remortgage deal
  • The mortgage term
  • Your mortgage type – repayment or interest only.

The remortgage calculator will then instantly estimate how much your monthly remortgage payments will be.

  • The remortgage calculator can show you how your monthly costs will change by increasing or decreasing your mortgage term.
  • You can also use the remortgage calculator to compare two mortgages. So you can see how much you’ll pay compared to your current deal or if you roll onto your lender’s standard variable rate.

How much can you save by remortgaging

The amount you can save by remortgaging will depend on factors including:

  • Old deal vs new deal: If your current deal is more expensive than a new deal you can now get, you will save (although remember to factor in any costs you may need to pay).
  • Avoids SVR: Even if you’re moving onto a higher rate, you’ll still typically save money by remortgaging as you’ll avoid having to pay your lender’s SVR.
  • Your LTV: If the amount of equity you have in your home has increased since you last remortgaged, your loan to value (LTV), will be lower. This means you may get access to better mortgage rates. Find out how much equity you have with our Mortgage Equity Calculator

You can use this handy remortgage calculator to see how much you’ll pay each month when you remortgage.

However, how much you may be able to save by remortgaging will depend on your circumstances, so it’s a good idea to get fee-free expert advice from a mortgage broker.

How much can I borrow when I remortgage?

When you remortgage, you can decide whether to borrow the amount that’s currently outstanding on your mortgage or you may decide to borrow more.

Your mortgage options will depend on your circumstances, so if you’re considering this it’s important to get expert advice. Speak to fee-free mortgage brokers at Mortgage Advice Bureau.

How to remortgage

Here are the steps you’ll need to take to remortgage:

  1. Dig out your paperwork. Remind yourself of your current mortgage deal and when it ends.
  2. Speak to a fee-free mortgage broker. A mortgage adviser will find the best remortgage deals available for you.
  3. Make your remortgage application. This stage is much faster if you use a mortgage broker as they’ll do the mortgage application for you.
  4. Keep the rate under review to see if a better deal comes up before you need to switch to your new deal.

How do I compare remortgage deals? 

When you’re comparing remortgage deals it’s important to factor in any mortgage fees like arrangement fees as well as the rate. But you don’t need to do this yourself, a fee-free mortgage broker will do this for you.

How do I find the best remortgage rate?

The best mortgage depends on your personal circumstances. The easiest way to find the best remortgage rate for you is to let the expert advisers at Mortgage Advice Bureau do the hard work for you

When should I remortgage?

You should start the remortgage process six months before your current deal is due to end. This will give you plenty of time to shop around for the best deal for you.

You can lock in a rate and then keep it under review in case a better deal becomes available before you need to switch.

Can I remortgage early?

Yes, you should be able to remortgage before the end of your current deal but make sure to find out if you’ll need to pay an early repayment charge. These are usually calculated as a proportion of your outstanding mortgage amount.

How long does it take to remortgage?

You should allow up to 3 months for the remortgage process but it may be much quicker. And if you’re remortgaging with your existing lender, known as a product transfer, this generally takes about a week.

Frequently Asked Questions

How are payments calculated on a repayment mortgage?

With a repayment mortgage, a portion of your monthly mortgage payment goes towards the capital, and the other part covers the interest on your debt. 
The amount of interest you pay is calculated on the remaining capital amount owing and will reduce over time as a result. This remortgage calculator is the easiest way to get an idea of your monthly repayments.

How much should my mortgage repayments be?

A common rule of thumb is that your mortgage repayments should not be more than 28% of your gross income.
However, what’s right for you will depend on your individual circumstances, so it’s a good idea to get tailored mortgage advice from an expert adviser.

What is an offset mortgage?

An offset mortgage is a type of mortgage that allows you to reduce the amount of interest you pay by ‘offsetting’ your savings against your mortgage balance. The mortgage amount you’ll pay interest on will be your mortgage balance, minus the amount in your linked savings account. Find out more in Offset mortgages explained

Do I need life insurance for a mortgage?

No, you don’t need life insurance when taking out a mortgage but it can be a very good idea to do so. If you have dependants like a partner and children who rely on your income, taking out life insurance gives a financial safety net that means your loved ones won’t need to worry about how to pay the mortgage if you die.

How much interest will I pay on my mortgage?

The amount of interest you’ll pay depends on the mortgage rate you’re on, the length of your term and whether you’re on an interest-only or repayment mortgage.

The rate can change over time, for example if you take out a fixed deal at one rate then remortgage onto another rate afterwards.

This remortgage calculator shows how much you would pay each month and over your mortgage term, assuming the rate remains the same.

If your mortgage rate changes, you can use the remortgage calculator again to show what your payments would be on your new rate, as well as the change to the total amount over the term.

You can see the impact of paying a higher or lower interest rate on your mortgage payments by adjusting the interest rate on the remortgage calculator.
