  • OK, it's time for a remortgage. About the only good thing about this crisis is the low interest rates.

    I'm looking at 2 years (probably fix) as I'd like to buy somewhere with a driveway soon. So the plan is to give the house a new kitchen and bathroom, tidy up the rest of it and make it less 80's looking.

    I'm thinking of asking for more money to get a bit of cash to cover the materials to do the work.

    Any tips and tricks on this approach?

  • Just to ask the obvious, have you price matched equity release against a regular loan?

    Obviously it totally depends on your individual circumstances, but a straight loan can often be cheaper so worth checking.
