Help To Buy - Remortgage to pay loan

Hi,

We're looking at remortgaging and paying off the full H2B loan. Does anyone know the process for this? It's probably just me but the Gov. site is confusing and contradicts itself. 

The "Request to remortgage and borrow more money form" doesn't allow you to provide any information to confirm how much you pay off.

Any help would be much appreciated.

    Why do you want to pay it off? I’d only do so if the interest rate on your mortgage was less than the interest rate on the HTB - unlikely at the moment - or if I expected my property price to rise rapidly in the next few years.

    The amount you repay is the percentage of the property value established by a valuation by a Chartered Surveyor.
