How long a remortgage will take will depend on a number of factors. The average process takes between 3 and 5 weeks. It can be quicker or slower, depending on when we receive your mortgage offer and whether the lender requires searches or search indemnity insurance.

If the property is leasehold then this may also delay the process depending on how long it takes the landlord to respond to the enquiries we send to them.
