Talking Your Way to a Better Remortgage
It is undisputable that finding a good remortgage deal for your house is going to be a difficult task to do. Finding a good deal is probably going to include you bargaining your way into it. If your goal is to get the best deal possible, you are going to have to plan on following these tips and bargaining to get the best mortgage possible
Find out what your current situation is. It is important to find out what your current mortgage's interest rate is and how much of each dollar that you send in is currently going towards the principal of the loan. If you don't have your loan stubs handy, you can check the Internet for a calculator that will figure out the numbers for you. When you see how much of your payment is going towards the interest and not towards your loan you are going to want to learn how to bargain.
Next, you're going to want to meet with a couple of banks. When you're looking at remortgaging your house, you're going to want to think of the first bank that you meet with as a practice bank. Use this bank to test the waters and see exactly how much you're going to be able to negotiate. You don't want to use the best bank as your first bank. Remember, you are practicing and using this opportunity to do a bit of research, and hopefully you're going to be able to negotiate better with the future banks that you talk to.
Compare banks. When you are finished talking to banks and bargaining to get the best deal possible, you are going to want to go back and tell them exactly what the other banks are offering you. By using better quotes against a bank, you are going to get them to lower the interest rate or fees even more if they want your business. A good bank is going to match the best bank and may even give you a special gift or lower interest rate. Banks are going to fight for your business if you have a good credit history and pay your mortgage on time.
Don't be too eager. After a meeting with a loan officer, he will usually follow up on the telephone to pressure you into choosing his bank. By telling them that you are still meeting with other banks, you are going to see whether or not he offered you the best deal possible. They will call you several times and each time that they call, the deal is going to get better and better. Don't be too eager and you are going to see exactly what they have to offer.
Getting a good remortgage deal is really difficult to do if you aren't prepared to do research and talk to several banks. If you are not up to it, why not have your spouse do it to save you money? By choosing someone who is going to be able to talk to banks and use the power of negotiation, you are going to get a better remortgage deal.
