What is remortgaging and why does it matter?
Remortgaging is the process of switching from your current mortgage to a new one, either with your existing lender or a new provider. You don’t need to be moving home to remortgage.
Most people remortgage for one of three reasons:
- Their current mortgage deal is ending
- They want a better interest rate or lower monthly payments
- They want to borrow more money (e.g. for home improvements, debt consolidation, or other large expenses)
Is remortgaging right for you?
We typically recommend looking at your remortgage options around 4 months before your current deal ends. Acting early gives you more time to secure a competitive rate and avoids getting moved to your lender’s standard variable rate (SVR), which is usually more expensive.
Your fixed or tracker deal is ending soon
You want to reduce your monthly repayments
You’re looking to borrow extra funds against your home
You’d like to pay off your mortgage faster or make it more flexible
Your circumstances have changed, and your current deal no longer fits
What are the benefits of remortgaging?
When done right, remortgaging can offer:
Potential savings
move from 5.5% to 4.5%, for example, and save £1,000s
Access to equity
release funds for renovations, tuition, or debt repayment
Lower monthly payments
by switching rates or consolidating other debts
Faster repayment options
Clearer financial control
match your mortgage to your lifestyle goals
Your existing mortgage provider will often offer you a quick internal switch, but staying put means missing out on cheaper deals across the rest of the market. Navigating these options requires an unbiased look at hidden switching fees versus long-term interest savings. To find out whether a market switch is right for you, you can request an independent remortgage review with our Coventry team.

Common questions about remortgaging
We recommend starting the process about 4–6 months before your current deal ends to avoid moving onto a more expensive SVR.

On average, about 2–3 weeks to receive a mortgage offer, and we’ll manage the entire process.
While switching lenders can involve legal, valuation, and arrangement fees, many lenders offer "fee-free" remortgage packages that cover these standard setup costs to entice your business. At Jigsaw Independent Mortgage Specialists Ltd, we calculate whether paying a small fee for a drastically lower interest rate saves you more money overall.
You can secure a new remortgage rate up to 6 months before your current fixed-rate deal ends. This allows you to protect yourself against rising rates while avoiding any Early Repayment Charges (ERCs) from your current lender.
Yes. If your property's value has increased or you have paid down a significant portion of your loan, you can remortgage to raise extra capital. Niche lenders across the West Midlands have highly flexible criteria for equity release, provided affordability checks are met.
