Should you use a
remortgage advisor

An initial meeting with a GHL Direct mortgage advisor to discuss your first time buyer mortgage will usually be under 30 minutes. That said, it can last up to one hour depending on the complexity of your circumstances. At this point we’ll try to keep it brief.

Remortgaging can be a big money saver but it doesn’t always work for everyone. Your current mortgage deal might have ERC (early repayment charges) or the set-up (arrangement) fees on a new mortgage could mean switching doesn’t make financial sense. Make sure you get the right advice before you commit, we can help you with that.

If you are a first-time buyer, the first question you probably asked was, ‘how much can I borrow’ or ‘can I afford a mortgage’. You probably also want to think about how much you can safely borrow. It’s important to think about what would happen if your circumstances were to change and your were unable to meet your mortgage repayments. It does happen so factor in all your other monthly payments before deciding how much you’d like your mortgage loan to be.

You current mortgage lender could have already contacted you if your deal is coming to an end. As your an existing customer they may offer you a good remortgage deal, but that’s not always the case. But if they do it could be cheaper, quicker and easier to stay with your current provider. Our remortgage advisors can help by comparing what’s on offer from your lender to the deals available from our mortgage panel of lenders. We can search over 15000 mortgages from 50 of the UKs top lenders.

Everyone loves to save money but do check the short term gains don’t have longer impact on your finances. You may be saving money every month but taking out a longer mortgage means taking longer to pay off your mortgage. This could cost you a lot more in the long run as you’ll pay more interest. Be sure that any new deal doesn’t extend the mortgage longer than you want it to.
