It has been said over the years that moving home can potentially be one of the most stressful experiences you will face in your life. That being said, with a mortgage broker in Sunderland working alongside you, a large portion of that stress will hopefully be taken away, something we intend to achieve with all customers.
One of the main reasons for the process of moving home being considered so stressful, is that you will be purchasing and completing a sale at the same time.
Lucky for you at least,the paperwork and simultaneous completions will fall into the hands of your conveyancing solicitor. You will still have to secure the current ongoing purchase as well as finding a buyer for the property you’re selling, during that time.
If you are looking to get started on moving home in Sunderland, our experienced team will do their best to ensure that every part of the process goes as quickly and as smoothly as possible. We will on hand from early until late, every day of your mortgage journey to support you and answer any questions that you may have.
We have the ability to search through 1000s of mortgage products in order to find the most ideal one for your current financial and personal standing. Please do not hesitate to contact us if you’re looking to move home and need expert mortgage advice in Sunderland.
We offer all customers who get in touch a free no-obligation mortgage appointment. We look forward to helping you start the next chapter in your home owning journey.
Porting a mortgage is where you transfer your mortgage from your current property over to another property when you move home.
You will find that most mortgages are “portable”, however, it entirely depends on your mortgage lender as to whether or not you are able to do this.
When moving home in Sunderland, if you are looking to achieve this, please reach out to us and we will help you prepare these arrangements with your lender.
There are many different costs that come with moving home, mostly because you are buying and selling one at the same time. Home buyers often end up spending double their money for added solicitor and estate agent fees.
When moving home in Sunderland and taking out a new mortgage, you must consider mortgage arrangement fees, property survey fees, removal fees and broker fees from a mortgage broker in Sunderland.
When moving home in Sunderland, the sale of your current house will be used to fully repay your existing mortgage balance.
If you are not porting your mortgage and are planning on taking out a new product on your new home, you will need to put down another mortgage deposit.
Some mortgage lenders may allow you to pay off your mortgage early, however, if you choose to do so, you may be subject to early repayment charges (ERCs).
Some mortgage lenders may cap how much you are able to overpay by. Most of the time your overpayments will be capped at around 10% of your remaining balance.
If you are on a standard variable rate you should be able to overpay as much as you want.
