This episode is a guide to porting your mortgage. Phil is joined by Simon from @SkiptonBuildingSociety to unpack the ins and outs of the process, so if you’re planning a move but keen to keep your current mortgage deal, this conversation explains what porting actually means and how it works in practice.
Porting a mortgage allows you to transfer your existing deal to a new property, but it’s not automatic and approval is still required. Planning ahead and understanding your lender’s requirements can make the process far less stressful.
From understanding lender criteria to knowing what checks are involved, this episode is designed to help you decide whether porting your mortgage is the right move for your next home.
