If you have a £123k mortgage how much capital do you need to pay back to BM to clear the mortgage?
It is £123k - if you want to leave BM they are not going to say thanks for th 6 months payments, that is all you owe us, now the proprty is yours. No.
You still have £123k minus the capital element of your mortgage payments for 6 months
IT is not to do with your monthly mortgage payments, the overall figure you have to pay back to BM if you wish to leave them.

Yes of course i know that after 6 payments the house wouldnt be mine, only in a perfect world. I dont think you understand what i am trying to say.
They are saying that an exit fee would be 5% of capital amount repaid in first year, ie 5% on the 12 payments i made.
I find this very unclear, would i not have some sort of case against them as i didnt fully understand what i was getting into when applying for this mortgage.0 -

No - if you did not understand you should have got clarification before signing
I'll try and keep this simple:
If you want to clear the mortgage, how much do you think you have to pay back to BM - forget penalties for the momentI am a Mortgage AdviserYou should note that this site doesn't check my status as a Mortgage Adviser, so you need to take my word for it.

yes, maybe lol
5% of capital amount repaid in first year, *repaid* being the important word here. They are saying repaid, which surely means the money that i have paid them back.0 -
lol
It sounds like you want to hear what you would like to hear.
But it does not work that way I'm afraid, the 5% is charged on the capital *being repaid*
Not the capital that has *been repaid*
