Moving Home Process

Our Mortgage Adviser will help guide you through every step of the process and our service is free of charge until the point when you have found a buyer for your current home and you are ready to apply for the mortgage on your new home.

Agreement in Principle

It’s a good idea to get an agreement in principle before you think about selling your current home. 

The agreement in principle gives you the confidence that you can get the mortgage you will need before you commit to selling your current home.

It helps you understand how much you will be able to borrow and work out your budget.

 An agreement, in principle, is a certificate issued by a mortgage lender that also gives an Estate Agent confidence that you can get the mortgage you need to buy the home they are selling.

Selling your current home

Working with a good Estate Agent can make life much easier, and they will make sure that they check any offers are genuine before they allow you to accept them to avoid disappointment later.

Make an offer via the Estate Agent

When you’ve seen the ideal place to buy you’ll need to make your offer to the Estate Agent.

The Estate Agent will want to see your ID, Agreement in Principle, proof of the sale of your current home and your solicitor’s details.

When the offer has been accepted the Estate Agent will issue a document called a “Memorandum of Sale” that gives the seller’s details as well as yours, the solicitor’s details and the property address and amount you have agreed to pay.

Choose and apply for a mortgage

There are many choices to be made before applying for your new mortgage. You can choose a Fixed, Discounted or Tracker Rate mortgage.

It may be that the mortgage on your current home still has some time left to run on a fixed rate for instance and there may be penalties to pay if you repay it.

An option to consider is the benefits of taking the existing mortgage with you to your new home if it is portable.

Your mortgage adviser will check if the current mortgage is portable and advise on the benefits of porting your mortgage compared with choosing a new one.

When the bank has approved your mortgage application, you will receive a “Mortgage Offer.”

The mortgage offer will typically be valid for six months and sets out the terms of the mortgage you have applied for.

Exchange of Contracts

When you have your mortgage offer, and all of the legal work has been completed your solicitor will “exchange contracts” on both your sale and purchase.

This is the point at which you will sign contracts, pay any deposit, and agree on the date when you will move to your new home.

Completion

This is the day you’ve been waiting for, and you will give up the keys to your old home and collect the keys to your new one.
