What is a home mover mortgage?

In simple words, a home mover mortgage is the process of getting a new mortgage when you relocate to a higher or lower valued house or change your mortgage provider.

 

What are the options available?

If you will keep your current home or if you need a new mortgage on a new property, you will have few options to think about.

1. Porting Your Existing Mortgage

Most of the mortgages are portable and allow you to move your current mortgage over to your new property.

However, you would still be required to go through the conventional application process.

2. Consent to let from same lender or let to buy.

If you choose to keep your current home to rent it out, you can choose to get consent to let from existing lender without changing your lender.

This would involve keeping the same mortgage terms and rate but get the lender permission to rent your property for limited time.

If consent to let option is not available or does not suit your requirement, you can remortgage as let to buy.

3. Mortgage with new lender

If porting options not available, you can get a new mortgage from another lender.
