Do I need a deposit for remortgage?

Apologies for silly question but I am really thick when it comes to finance.

If I remortgage my move with a valuation of 110,000 with a 64,000 mortgage will I need to provide a 10% deposit?

    No. As you already own the property.

    A deposit is required upon exchange of contracts when purchasing initially.
  • Your deposit is the c £46,000 equity you have in the property.

    If everything else (credit rating, income etc) is straightforward then at 58% LTV (hopefully staying under 60%) you should get a very attractive rate.

    However, I'm not sure I understand the phrase "If I remortgage my move" ! move ?
