How our remortgage calculator works

Our remortgage calculator can tell you what your new LTV and repayments will be when you refinance.

Enter your property value, remaining mortgage balance, mortgage term and interest rate, and the tool will do the rest. If you need to release any equity, there’s an option for that too.

You can also play around with different interest rates to see how they impact things.

Calculating your maximum borrowing

Our remortgage calculator gives you a rough idea of the maximum amount you could borrow when refinancing, but if you want a detailed breakdown of this, including information about how it can differ from one lender to another, try our mortgage affordability calculator below.

Mortgage Affordability Calculator

Use this calculator to determine how much you could potentially borrow for a mortgage, based on the typical salary multiples used by most UK lenders.

Most lenders would consider letting you borrow

This is based on 4.5 times your household income, the standard calculation used by the majority of mortgage providers. To borrow more than this, you will need to use a mortgage broker to access specialist lenders.

Some lenders would consider letting you borrow

This is based on 5 times your household income, a salary multiple you might struggle to qualify for without the help of a broker. This income multiple is not widely available to customers who are applying directly with a lender.

A minority of lenders would consider letting you borrow

This is based on 6 times your household income, a salary multiple you will struggle to get without a broker. Six-times salary mortgages are usually only available under very specific circumstances.

Calculating a buy-to-let remortgage

The repayments and loan-to-value calculations are no different for a buy-to-let mortgage compared to a repayment one, so our calculator can help you work these figures out for your investment property. Affordability is, however, calculated very differently.

Working out how much equity you can release

Our remortgage calculator includes an input field for homeowners who need to release equity/borrow extra when they refinance. The unlocked capital is factored into the calculations and reflected in the new loan-to-value ratio and repayments it outputs.

One thing to consider, though: some mortgage lenders impose LTV caps and maximum borrowing amounts of remortgage customers who are releasing equity, based on the purpose of the funds.

These can include the following:

  • A maximum LTV of between 75% and 85% for general purposes, such as funding the purchase of a second property.
  • An LTV cap of 90% if you are renovating a property or funding home improvements.
  • An LTV cap of 60-85% if you are consolidating debt.
  • Maximum borrowing of £250,000 if you are using the funds to buy or renovate a property.

How to calculate your LTV ratio

If you want to work out your loan-to-value ratio before you search for a remortgage deal, you can use our LTV calculator below to find out what it currently is.

LTV Calculator

This calculator will tell you what your loan-to-value (LTV) ratio is, based on the property's value, your deposit/equity and the amount you're borrowing.

Your LTV is

This means that most mortgage providers will consider your deposit amount to be more than satisfactory, but speaking to a broker is still recommended to ensure you get the best deal.

This means you’re likely to meet the deposit requirements at most lenders, but since many reserve their best rates for those with higher deposits, speaking to a broker is recommended.

Many mainstream mortgage providers would consider this high and be reluctant to lend. Applying through a mortgage broker may be necessary to find a specialist low deposit mortgage lender.

LTVs have a direct impact on the rates available to you - speak to a mortgage broker and find out how to get the best deal based on your ratio.

What you should do next

FAQs

The way you would work out your mortgage affordability and loan-to-value ratio when remortgaging a Shared Ownership property will be different as your calculations should focus on the portion of the property you will own, not the overall value.

If you’re buying extra shares through staircasing, this should be factored in.
