Mortgages for Home Movers

Found your dream home? We'll help you find the right mortgage.

Move house with confidence


Moving to a new house can be both exciting and stressful. It is a life-changing decision and we can help you get the mortgage right.

What options do you have as a home mover?

As a home mover,  you may have more choice of lenders and mortgage deals due to the fact that you may have a larger deposit from the equity in your current home. However, you should also consider that your circumstances may have changed since getting your current mortgage. Moving home often ties in with a life changing event, such as getting married or having a child which will inevitably affect your finances.

So what options do you have if you want to move house?

  • Porting. Most residential mortgages are portable, which means you can move your current mortgage over to your new property. If you need to increase the size of your loan, your lender will often require you to take out a separate mortgage that covers the difference in price. This is often beneficial if your existing mortgage has Early Repayment Charges (ERCs).
  • Find a new mortgage product. You may want to consider an entirely new mortgage with a new lender or, possibly, with your existing lender. If there are no early repayment charges and your existing rate is not competitive, this is a common option.
  • Let to Buy. This is a process that helps you purchase a new home while keeping possession of your current property and letting it out.

With so many providers and different options out there, finding the right mortgage can be a complicated and time-consuming process. That is why an experienced mortgage broker such as Fairview Financial can help you find a great mortgage deal by searching across the whole market, from thousands of different types of home mover mortgages. We can tailor your mortgage to suit your requirements and avoid any unnecessary costs.

These are some of the costs you need to take into account:.

  • Early repayment charges -  the penalty for leaving the mortgage before it comes to an end, often calculated as a percentage of your loan value.
  • Valuation fees - the cost of hiring a surveyor to assess the property’s condition and value.
  • Arrangement fees - lender's administrative costs for organising your mortgage.
  • Legal fees - the cost of hiring a solicitor for carrying out the conveyancing process.
  • Booking fees - a one-off application fee charged by the lender, to reserve the capital while processing your request
  • Stamp duty -  Depending on the price of the property and its location, you may have to pay stamp duty on your purchase.
