Remortgaging your property is where you take out a new mortgage on a property that you already own. This could be done to repay an existing mortgage at a better rate, or to borrow more money. When you first got your mortgage on your current home you would have been offered an introductory deal for a set amount of time, known as a term. At the end of the term, it is likely that you would be automatically moved onto a different rate by the mortgage lender. This will often be higher than your previous rate. This is when many people look at remortgaging their homes. It’s a way to shop around for a better deal and save money.

To remortgage your property, you will need a conveyancer or a property solicitor. They will be able to process the remortgage transaction for you. This will include redeeming any existing balance with the current lender. Also, removing their registered mortgage from the Land Registry title. The property solicitor will also enter you into the new load with the new mortgage lender. This will include registering their mortgage with the land registry.
