Hi All,
If my daughter takes out a mortgage now (with no tie-ins) can she remortgage to get a better deal in the summer?
Debt Free 👏 Except the mortgage of course.
Looking to the future 😊

    Just trying to gather info so can make informed options as her partner has the deposit money in a savings account locked until May, have to do lots of calculations to work out the most financially viable way to get them a property sooner.

    how locked away is the money - you can often gt money out of a savings account but with a penalty.

    ?find out what this is - is this cheaper than arranging 2 mortgages?
