Anyone who owns their home and has been regularly making their payments on their mortgage may have accumulated a certain amount of equity. There could come a time when you wish to carry out home improvements like an extension or new roof, pay for a wedding or maybe for a university course or possibly refinance your debts into one manageable monthly payment. So to be able to release this equity could be an excellent solution

Release Equity from your home

Those who remortgage to release the equity that they have built up in their home, should consider carefully about how and when they are going to do this, however. The decisions that you make now can affect your financial situation for years to come. It helps to ask for advice from a mortgage broker like us here at Just Mortgage Brokers to ensure that you are making the right (and most effective) decision for you, at the right time.

You may have to pay an early repayment charge to your existing lender if you remortgage.

Remortgage for capital rising

The amount of equity that you have in your home refers to how much of it you own compared to your mortgage. So, for example if you have home worth £200,000 and you have an outstanding mortgage of £150,000, you have an equity of £50,000. This value will only increase as you go on paying your mortgage off subject to any changes in property prices.

You can apply to unlock this equity with a remortgage, leaving the lump sum for whatever reason you have, to need it. Do note however that most lenders will require a certain amount of equity to remain in the property and will only allow you to raise funds for specific reasons as permitted by their individual criteria.
