Re-mortgaging with negative equity? :S

My fixed rate ends soon, which will actually help short term as the variable rate is lower than my current fixed rate, but if/when I do need to re-mortgage my house is now worth £15k - £20k less than when I bought it.

What are my options when trying to get a better deal?

Thanks :beer:

    You need your LTV to be 90% at the most so need to overpay by more than 20k to be in a position to remortgage. I'd go over to the debt free wannabe forum for help on how to put every bit of spare cash into the mortgage.

    Your only current option for your mortgage is to see if your existing lender has any deals. Unfortunately no other lender will consider you at the moment.
