Porting a mortgage

Moving Home? Take your mortgage deal with you

You might be able to avoid an early repayment charge by taking your mortgage with you.

Porting is taking your current mortgage deal with you to a new home

To port your mortgage you’ll need an appointment with one of our mortgage advisers. They will complete the application with you and help you through the process.

Understanding your options

When moving home you can take your mortgage with you or start a new mortgage. The information below may help you decide what's best for you.

Porting

Taking your mortgage with you might be the right choice as:

  • It allows you to keep your current interest rate and features which may be lower than the new rates currently available.
  • There may not be an Early Repayment Charge (ERC) to pay as you're not ending your current deal early.
  • You can still reduce or increase the amount of the mortgage. Any additional borrowing would be on current rates available and will involve affordability checks.

Start a new mortgage

A new mortgage might be the right choice for you if:

  • Your mortgage rate is higher than those currently available and you're happy to pay the Early Repayment Change (ERC) to change to a new rate.
  • You're on Standard Variable Rate (SVR) so there would be no Early Repayment Charge.
