By switching to a better deal with a different mortgage provider, remortgaging could potentially allow you to benefit from lower interest rates and lower monthly mortgage repayments.
According to latest research by L&C Mortgages* 36% of UK homeowners are sitting on their lender Standard Variable Rate (SVR). The current average lender SVR is 4.40%. So when you took out your mortgage there is a good chance that you were given a fixed initial rate deal e.g. 2,3 or 5 years.
So at the end of the initial rate you will usually have been switched automatically to the lender’s Standard variable Rate (SVR) of interest.
If this is you will probably be paying a lot more interest on your mortgage repayments each month than you need to.
You are not alone. 4 million UK homeowners are in the same boat.
