Mortgages and Re-mortgages

We deal with a lot of mortgage work at Onions & Davies, even in a depressed market where mortgaging and re-mortgaging is not as common as it used to be.

A mortgage or legal charge applies when you wish to purchase a house but lack the funds to cover the complete cost. In such scenarios, you will likely approach a bank or building society for a loan. In exchange for lending you these funds, the lender will want some form of assurance that they are protected should you fail to repay the loan. This assurance comes in the form of a document wherein your house serves as security for the loan; this document is referred to as a mortgage.

Remortgaging, on the other hand, occurs when you opt to swap your existing mortgage arrangement for a different one. Remortgaging a property happens for various reasons. It could be to increase your loan amount or secure a better deal. In certain instances, chiefly if you are remortgaging with your current lender, you might be offered a new deal without solicitor involvement. However, if you intend to switch lenders, the procedure will predictably be more intricate and necessitate a legal professional’s expertise.
