What is a Product Transfer?
A product transfer is when you remortgage with the same lender.
Remortgaging doesn’t always mean swapping mortgage providers. You remortgage whenever you change the deal you’re on, switching to a new rate, term, loan amount or other special features.
Why remortgage with the same lender?
Mainly because remortgaging with the same lender – doing a product transfer – is more straightforward and can often be a more cost effective option.
When you switch mortgage lenders, you need to reapply for a mortgage. That means passing eligibility and affordability checks, having your property valued, and getting solicitors involved. With a Product Transfer, there’s none of that.
We will simply discuss the options and ascertain which is the most suitable rate and move your existing mortgage across to the new deal. This will happen at the end of your introductory period and just before you fall onto the Standard Variable Rate. It’s worth noting, to take advantage of a more competitive rate, some lenders will allow you to switch your current rate up to 4 months early and they will even waive any Early Redemption Charges.
THINK CAREFULLY BEFORE SECURING OTHER DEBTS AGAINST YOUR HOME. YOUR HOME MAY BE REPOSSESSED IF YOU DO NOT KEEP UP REPAYMENTS ON A MORTGAGE OR ANY OTHER DEBT SECURED ON IT.
Debt consolidation is not always the most suitable option and consolidating debts must be carefully considered. It will usually mean more interest over a longer repayment term and there may also be early repayment penalties on your current mortgage, so you should think carefully before securing other debts against your home.

I’ve used Tom and The Official Mortgage Company for my last 3 Mortgages and will be using again very soon on remortgaging and a buy to let – always brilliant advice, friendly service and on the ball especially when rates are essential.

Jason has been our mortgage provider for both our first mortgage and our recently completed re-mortgage. In terms of the service we have received we physically could not ask for more, from start to finish it has been fantastic. To anyone reading this considering using Jason, please do not hesitate no matter what situation you are in first time buyer, poor credit, remortgage., Jason will be able to help you find the product you need.
Working in Conveyancing I have dealt with many property transactions over the years, however, dealing with my own mortgage application seemed a little daunting at first. I have recently had the pleasure of working with Jason in a professional capacity and as a result decided to engage Jason for my own mortgage application. Jason has been approachable and assisted with any queries I had relating to my own mortgage application. The process was easy and efficient. All queries were dealt with promptly and I would highly recommend Jason to family/ friends, colleagues and professional connections.
Jason has been brilliant from start to finish. If you need a personable, professional and efficient mortgage advisor call Jason. We will definitely be using him again. Thank you. James & Sophie
I can only say good words about Tom and the services that he provides. Tom sorted out a couple of things for me and my wife’s personal and business interests. These ranged from life insurance through to commercial lending. He was always quick to respond with answers to any questions or concerns that we had and nothing was too much effort. In addition to his professionalism, we always found him to be attentive, accommodating and very personable. We will definitely use him again when required.
Having previously brokered mortgages as Tom & Jason do now, I know just how hard and challenging the job is. I have been referring my previous clients and family to The Official Mortgage Company for the past 4 years and I have found them to be extremely efficient, capable and great communicators. More than anything though it is their approach to business of always doing the right thing for the client that has most impressed me.
The official mortgage company had been recommended to me by a friend of a friend because my remortgage wasn’t as straight forward as a usual mortgage application. Jason was appointed the task of finding me a mortgage that suited my situation (like I say not a straightforward one by any stretch of the imagination) and I have to say he’s certainly risen to the task! I’ve gone from not thinking I would get one, to having a mortgage offer and is set to complete in the next coming few weeks, all done in a matter of not even a couple of months thank you Jason I will certainly use your services again at the end of my mortgage product and will have no hesitation in recommending your company to anyone who requires mortgage application help or life insurance advice.
This is the second time we have used Tom Guest as our broker. We had a very stressful completion yesterday, but Tom has been excellent from start to finish and made this daunting process seamless. He’s been a calming influence through the times when we thought a mortgage was not possible, but it was… Thank you Tom Guest, now we can build that family home
Jason was recommended to us by friends after their positive experience. We were looking to purchase our first home and had no idea where to start. Jason was exceptional from the very beginning of our search, right through to picking up the keys to our home and beyond. Jason couldn’t have been more responsive. He was polite and courteous. Jason was able to identify good mortgage opportunities for us, enabling us to buy our perfect home. We could not fault Jason’s service nor recommend him enough. He helped to make the stressful situation of buying a house a lot more manageable by going above and beyond identifying mortgages for us. We will certainly be in touch if we ever decide to move home!
I have had a fantastic experience with Jason completing my remortgage. He has made it as pain free as possible. He is professional but friendly and approachable. I have no hesitation in recommending him to anyone seeking mortgage advice. In 5 years, I will absolutely use his service again!
After being messed about for 2 months by other mortgage advisors, we only had a short period of time before the house we reserved went back on the market. Tom made everything seem so easy. We were kept informed at all times, any questions we had were answered in detail and responses were incredibly fast. Tom knew exactly where to look for our specific (difficult) needs. We couldn’t have done it without him. Would 100% recommend!
I can’t thank Tom, Stacie, and the Official Mortgage Company team enough for all of their help over the last few months. The path to getting my mortgage approved was somewhat challenging at times due to my circumstances, but they have been so knowledgeable and helpful every step of the way. I absolutely could not have done it without their help, and I’ll be recommending them to all of my friends!
Tom was amazing from start to finish. I felt at ease throughout the whole process. Stacie was also very professional and helpful. Thank you so much we couldn’t recommend enough.
We had an absolutely fantastic service from Jason when we applied for a new mortgage! He’s extremely reliable, great at what he does and a superb communicator. Highly recommend.
I would gladly recommend Jason and The Official Mortgage Company to anyone. Extremely knowledgeable and supportive throughout the whole re-mortgaging process. I will be utilising Their services for all future property transactions. A big thumbs up from me!
What an absolute pleasure it has been having Jason as our mortgage advisor for the second time. Cannot recommend Jason enough he is so helpful and just takes all the stress of remortgaging away. Thank you so much for all of your help 🙂
Jason helped us through the initial stress and stages of our first home purchase, and has been absolutely fantastic from start to finish. An amazing personal, and professional, approach. Jason not only helped with our mortgage but also assisted in everything else needed, from life insurance to buildings and contents. It was truly a well-rounded experience, and I couldn’t recommend him enough! Thank you!
Jason has been a great help to me. The service that he provides could not be bettered. He found me just the products I needed and for a very fair fee. Always professional, courteous and timely. I would not hesitate to recommend The Official Mortgage Company to anyone in need of sound financial advice.
After having been let down after 4 months by our original mortgage advisor we went to Tom at The Official Mortgage Company. We can’t recommend him enough, he was always on hand for any questions and did everything possible to get us a successful offer around what we needed. The service and communication we received was amazing and we can’t thank Tom enough. The saying ‘you get what you pay for’ is so true in this case. We’d recommend Tom and The Official Mortgage Company a million times over and will certainly be back in touch with Tom when it’s time to remortgage.
