Applying for remortgage with additional borrowing

Hi, I'm looking to apply for a mortgage with £10k additional borrowing to pay off a personal loan. (I will be losing £350 a month from my wages soon so can't afford the £410 repayment). What I need to know is, should I enter the £410 loan payment on my application to the mortgage provider as I will be paying this off as soon as I get the mortgage ok'd .... Thanks for your help.

  • Wait for someone more knowledgeable to clarify, but, if its for consolidation you'll have to say what debts you have and what you're going to pay off and they should take that into account.

    You always enter any current or recently-repaid credit commitments and if doing so, tick the "to be repaid on or before completion" box.

    Be careful, a few lenders will "tax" your mortgage affordability even if the loan is to be repaid.
