Your Mortgage Options When Moving Home

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.

One year in my new home, and I couldn’t be happier with how smoothly the whole journey went. Thanks to Empire Mortgages Ltd and a special mention to Nathan Hunter for making the mortgage process completely stress-free. I genuinely had to do very little other than trust Nathan and leave everything in his capable hands. Buying a home can be overwhelming, but having the right person guiding you makes all the difference. A year on, with no issues whatsoever, I can truly say when you choose the right people, you’re sorted for life. Hassle-free, stress-free and highly recommended!

I can highly recommend both Empire Mortgages Ltd and Nathan Hunter...Nathan made the process really easy and straight-forward, talked through all the options and made some recommendations based on what I needed. He kept me updated on progress even when I was away on holiday. I wont be using anyone else for mortgages now!
