Moving to a new home is an exciting milestone, but it can also be overwhelming—especially when it comes to finding the right mortgage. Whether you’re upsizing for a growing family, downsizing to something more manageable, or simply relocating, securing the right mortgage deal is essential.
At Empire Mortgages, we take the hassle out of the process by offering expert, tailored mortgage advice and searching the whole market to find the best deal for you.
With over 60 years of combined experience, our dedicated mortgage advisers will guide you every step of the way, from assessing your current mortgage options to securing the most competitive rates. We’ll handle the paperwork and liaise with lenders, so you can focus on what really matters—settling into your new home with peace of mind.
When moving house, you have a few mortgage options to consider:
Porting Your Existing Mortgage – Many mortgages are portable, meaning you can transfer your current deal to your new home. This can be beneficial if you’re on a great rate, but it’s important to check with your lender to see if you meet their criteria.
Getting a New Mortgage – If your current mortgage isn’t portable, or you want a better deal, you may need to apply for a new mortgage. We compare lenders across the whole market to find the best rates tailored to your situation.
Additional Borrowing – If you’re moving to a more expensive home, you may need to borrow extra funds. We’ll help assess your affordability and find the right solution to fit your budget.
No matter your circumstances, Empire Mortgages is here to guide you every step of the way.
We understand that moving home can be stressful, which is why we aim to make your mortgage journey as smooth as possible. Our expert advisers will:
