How does Help to Buy remortgaging work?

If you are looking to remortgage there are a few things to consider:

  • Inform Help to Buy administrator beforehand: Notify them before switching lenders or borrowing more.
  • Increased borrowing allowed: Only for specific reasons like repaying the Help to Buy loan, making approved home improvements, or transferring equity.
  • Loan to value limit: Typically capped at 75% of home value unless repaying the equity loan.
