A mortgage is a long-term financial commitment and is not suitable for everyone.
Your home may be repossessed if you do not keep up repayments on your mortgage or any other debt secured on it.
Interest rates may be fixed or variable. If you take a variable or tracker mortgage, your repayments could increase if interest rates rise. Changes to your personal circumstances — such as loss of income, illness, or increased living costs — could also affect your ability to meet repayments.
Mortgages often involve additional costs, including arrangement fees, legal fees, valuation fees, early repayment charges, and other lender or adviser fees. Extending the mortgage term may reduce monthly payments but can result in paying more interest overall and remaining in debt for longer.
You should carefully consider affordability now and in the future and seek professional advice before proceeding.
Important: Your home may be repossessed if you do not keep up repayments on your mortgage or any other debt secured on it.
