Can I remortgage to pay for home improvements?

Yes! Many homeowners choose to release equity from their homes by remortgaging and using the money to pay for significant home improvements. Depending on the refurbishments, this may increase the property’s value.

Adding the costs of refurbishments and renovation to your mortgage means spreading said cost across the remainder of the term. 

Should I remortgage my home to make home improvements?

Remortgaging can be a suitable way to fund home improvements. However, everyone’s circumstances are different, and remortgaging may not be the right option for everyone. This is a personal decision and should only be made after you have considered all the facts. These include:-

  • Whether you can manage an increase in your monthly mortgage payments
  • Whether you are tied into your current deal with early repayment charges
  • Do you have equity in your home?
  • What is the current loan to value on your property?
  • What is the likely uplift in your property value after the improvements have been made?

Do The Type Of Home Improvements Affect My Ability To Remortgage?

Yes, it can. Some lenders are interested in whether the planned work is structural or non-structural because this impacts property value. A new or existing lender may request evidence of the scheduled work, perhaps by submitting quotes. Most lenders will also stipulate that there must be proof of building consent and planning permission before proceeding. Some lenders want precise details on exactly where the loan will be going. However, each lender has different requirements, and it’s our job to simplify the process for you. If you want to look into the options available, our expert advisors are here to discuss your plans and locate a suitable lender – talk to us, and we can begin!

Should I remortgage or take out a home improvement loan instead?

Multiple options for funding home improvements include a secured loan, a bridging loan, a second charge, or a home improvement loan.

Never go ahead with a deal you’re unsure is right for you – contact us and discuss it instead. Whilst remortgaging affords you lower interest rates and incentives versus a personal loan, understand that our network of specialist lenders likely has a plan perfectly tailored for you. 

Before signing off on borrowed funds against your home, seek our specialist advisors’ help. Our team of mortgage experts will assess your financial situation and help you identify the best course of action based on your personal and financial circumstances.

Remortgage for home Improvements FAQs

Will I need a new valuation to remortgage for home improvements?

Yes, most of the time, a new mortgage lender will want to complete a valuation on your property before approving your application. They must ensure the property provides adequate security for the loan or further advance. This valuation will be on your property as it is now, not with the projected value your renovation work may add. Some lenders offer incentives whereby the lender covers the cost of this valuation when you remortgage.

Adverse credit shouldn’t, and isn’t always, a barrier to remortgaging. Its effects on your applications depend on your existing mortgage company, and which specialist lender you get in contact with. When the Bank Says No will construct your application and documentation in the most positive and comprehensive light, and present it to a network of niche lenders who almost exclusively accept lenders in this situation.
