Moving Home โ€” More Complex Than It Looks

Home movers face a unique set of mortgage challenges. You may have an existing mortgage with Early Repayment Charges, a fixed rate you want to keep, or a lender that won't approve you for the new property's purchase price. Getting this wrong can cause real problems โ€” we make sure it goes smoothly.

What We Advise On

  • Porting your existing mortgage to the new property
  • Top-up borrowing on top of a ported mortgage
  • Switching to a better deal at the same time as moving
  • Bridge-to-let if there's a timing gap between sale and purchase
  • Onward chains โ€” what happens if your buyer's mortgage falls through

Porting Explained

Porting means taking your existing mortgage deal with you to your new property. This can be a good option if you have a good interest rate or want to avoid Early Repayment Charges. However, porting isn't always possible โ€” the new property must meet your lender's criteria and you must pass fresh affordability checks. We'll tell you quickly whether porting makes sense for your situation.

Not always. You must pass your lender's current affordability criteria, the new property must meet their requirements, and the timing must work. We'll check this for you before you commit to anything.
Bridging finance or a simultaneous exchange and completion with the chain can solve this. We'll advise on the best solution for your specific circumstances.
