Remortgage Switching
-
Variable rate mortgages
The insistence of many Banks in not cutting their existing customers standard variable rates by an appropriate amount or in some cases not at all is a scandal and comes despite urgings and threats from Finance Minister Michael Noonan. There are 300,000 mortgage customers on high standard variable rates. These customers can potentially save thousands of euro over the remaining term of their mortgage by switching mortgage provider. Switching is relatively easy and in some cases free. A number of lenders are willing to contribute up to €2000 toward the cost of switching.

Benefits of Remortgage
In recent research, The Central Bank found that over 100,000 or 1 in 5 mortgage customers in Ireland could benefit could benefit from switching their mortgage. Are any of your clients one of them? If you have an existing client with an existing variable rate mortgage holder we can review their mortgage and compare their terms to those available in the market for free and within 48 working hours.

Savings
We have saved some existing mortgage holders thousands of euros by obtaining better terms for them with an alternative Lender and in some cases their new Lender has paid the cost of switching. For loans of less than 80% of the value of your home a rate of 3.1% variable is currently available in the market. Recently we saved a client potential interest payments in excess of €40,000 over the remaining term of their mortgage. Often the hassle of dealing with the paperwork and switching is the very thing that dissuades clients from acting but if someone said to them, speak with us for 15 minutes , we may subsequently complete some forms and we will give you a cheque for €40,000 I am not sure many of them would say no!?
