Reasons to Remortgage
There are various reasons why remortgaging is a good idea. We’ve outlined some of the main ones below:
- You want to switch to us from a different lender because you’re at the end of a deal
- You want to look for a more competitive interest rate, so monthly payments will be lower
- You wish to increase or decrease the mortgage term due to your personal circumstances
- You want to release some extra cash for home improvements
If you have another reason for remortgaging, we’re all ears! Talk to us today.
Getting the Remortgaging process up and running
Whether you’re searching for a better rate or wanting to release some capital, let us guide you through your remortgaging journey.
Simply book an appointment with your local branch to find out the full range of options available to you.
Remember to bring the following along with you:
- Proof of identity; a current passport or driving license
- Proof of address; a utility bill or bank statement from within the last 3 months
- Proof of income; if employed, latest P60 and last 3 months payslips, if self-employed, last 3 years business accounts (most recent accounts must not be older than 18 months) or last 3 years SA302’s and corresponding tax year overviews;
- Bank details; last 3 months’ bank statements showing income and spending
Details of any existing financial commitments; up to date balance of credit or store cards, personal loans and hire purchases
Our Remortgaging options on offer
We offer two main types of mortgage: Fixed Rate and Variable Discount Rate.
We know that everyone’s circumstances are different, so we have a range of products to suit your particular needs.
- A Fixed Rate means your monthly payments remain the same, so you’ll know exactly how much you’re paying each month
- A Variable Discount Rate means that your monthly payments could fluctuate, depending on the external market interest rates.
Each mortgage product covers a term of 2, 3 or 5 years.
After this period, your mortgage will automatically switch to Progressive’s Standard Variable Rate, which may mean that your monthly repayments increase. We’ll write to you before this happens, inviting you to talk to us about switching to a better deal.
When you remortgage with Progressive we want to make sure you’re always getting the most suitable mortgage for your needs. Use our remortgage calculator to see what products we could offer you.
