    depending on the size of your mortgage, it may be difficult to remortgage and make it worth your while.

    You do not have to extend to 25 yrs again, you can take the mortgage for same term or look to reduce further if you can afford to.

    Ask your current lender for a new deal or look for a fee free remortgage deal.

    What size is your current mortgage?

  • If you dont want to remortgage, see what your current provider has to offer, I have been with ybs for the last 9 years and I have never paid the standard rate, I just get a new product offer when my current one is due to expire, this way i dont have to have a new valuation and its really easy to do.
