How much you can borrow will depend upon numerous factors such as current loan to value, your income or outstanding debts.

London room searches are up a staggering 98%, while the hunt for homes in Cornwall is down by more than half compared to last year.

Searches for “shared ownership London” is also 48% higher.

“houses for sale in Cornwall” are down 46% and “houses for sale in Devon” 37% lower, according to data from specialist analysts MediaVision.

London rents fell and property prices flatlined during the pandemic when thousands of residents decided to move out in a “race for space”. However, as offices have reopened interest in city living has revived strongly, particularly for flats. The data suggests that many in the South-East are keen to move closer to the office now that working from home is no longer required.

If you are staying with your current lender, you will not need a solicitor or conveyancer. The only time you will need one is if you change your mortgage provider. This is because title deeds will change from one lender to another.

Solicitors will carry out all the legal work involved in remortgaging such as:

1. verifying identity
2. checking title deeds with the land registry
3. completing anti money laundering checks
4. bankruptcy search
5. requesting local authority searches
6. checking the new mortgage offer and the sum due
7. receiving and distributing the funds

The typical cost of a solicitor’s fees when remortgaging is around £300-£1000. We can find you the most competitively priced solicitor for your circumstances. Everyone we recommend has a proven track record of service.

Yes, you can. Legally, there's no reason why you can't leave your fixed-rate mortgage early and move it to another lender. Whether you should is another question entirely. You will most likely need to pay an early repayment charge and exit fee if you decide to switch the mortgage before the fixed rate ends.

Next month is the best time to sell a property, analysis published by Rightmove shows.

Discounting the market closure in early 2020, the firm says that over the last five years, March has seen the highest number of enquiries per property on sale, despite new listings also peaking in March.

And this year is no different, Rightmove says that, on an annual basis, new listings over the last three weeks are up 11%, buyer demand over the last three weeks is up 32%, and home valuation requests since the start of the year have risen 27%.

The ‘race for space’ continues as searches for gardens are up 70% over the last two years 🌳🌻.

April is the next-strongest month, followed by May.

January saw a sharp increase in the number of properties coming onto the market, says Propertymark.

It says that the number of new instructions per member estate agency branch rose from five in December 2021 to nine at the start of this year. This is an 80% increase after three months of sequential decline.

However, registrations by house hunters per branch also rose by an average of 100, so demand is still high. The Propertymark report adds that 37% of properties sold above asking price in January compared to 25% in December 2021. Compared to January 2020 where just 9% of properties sold above asking price.

Yes, it is possible to remortgage with the same lender and this is known as a product transfer. Alternatively, you could get a further advance which would usually be at a different rate to your current mortgage and this may be quicker than re-mortgaging.

Yes, you can however there is something that you need to be aware of before proceeding with this as a plan. You will probably end up paying more interest even though you rate may be lower because you will be paying off the debt over a longer-term. It is potentially viable if you are struggling to clear the debt.

Sustainable borrowing is of growing importance and 2022 could be a breakthrough year for green mortgages. 🌍💚

Green mortgages usually offer cheaper rates when you buy a property that offers high energy-efficiency (for example with an A or B Energy Performance Certificate rating).

These types of mortgages are useful for people buying new-build homes, but not so much for those buying older, less well-insulated properties. With that in mind, some lenders have launched mortgages that offer cheaper rates or cashback when the borrower makes energy-efficient improvements to their home.

All in all, the green mortgage market is still relatively small, but we expect to see it grow significantly in 2022.

Lenders will only lend you a percentage of the property value. Because of this you may not need a deposit as you may have enough equity in the property. We can help you calculate how much you can borrow although the first step would be to get a valuation on your property.
