Remortgage for House Extension Advise Please?


Current mortgage £150k, current mortgage is 2.09% and has charges of £6k at the moment to leave early and term ends Nov 21.
House value is circa £380k so there should be no issue raising the funds but wondering what best method is? Is the best bet to remortgage with current provider but I’m not sure how that works, would it be separate mortgage with them? And worried it won’t be a great deal?
any advise much appreciated.

@smitty_1983 With an ERC of £6k, your cheapest option to borrow an extra 60k now is likely to be taking out a further advance / additional borrowing from your current lender. If you do that, you end up with 2 mortgage parts - the £150k one ending Nov21 and the £60k one ending at a different date.
If you can wait till November, then a remortgage (to another lender) with a capital raise for the extension comes into the picture.I am a Mortgage Adviser - You should note that this site doesn't check my status as a mortgage adviser, so you need to take my word for it.

@K_S many thanks for responding.
So if I took out a separate one for the £60k then I guess I’m free in November to shift the £150k to another provider in November for a better rate. Wondering how I would realign the amounts with one provider in the future as the term ends will always be out of sync won’t they?0 -

To join up the parts (say in November), you'd have to pay the ERC (if any) on the smaller part.I am a Mortgage Adviser - You should note that this site doesn't check my status as a mortgage adviser, so you need to take my word for it.

2nd charge lending could also work and then remortgage when the main loan comes up for renewal
