    If you remortgage and take a further advance, look for a lender that lets you make over payments. That way if you are declined you can repay the advance. Other option Wait 8 weeks then do the remortgage, you will be on SVR but at least you will know if you need to take the further advance. How big is your mortgage

    You could go for a mortgage with a drawdown facility - Woolwich openplan for example.
