Mortgage transfer - house fallen through

Can anyone offer advice?
We planned to transfer our mortgage to our new house - trying to line up our sale and our purchase. Our house has now fallen through but we must sell and move into rented as we have started jobs. This means we'll be hit with a fee to pay off the mortgage early.

Our Mortgage is with Nationwide. Do you think there is a way of avoiding the early exit fee? We'll be set to lose this money otherwise.

  • Hi hunny. I knly have experience with Halifax but they told us that as long as we took another mortgage with them within 6 months they would still class it as porting and refund us the fee. Maybe worth just asking them if they do the same. So sorry to hear of whats happened to you though.
