Mortgages

Second charge mortgages, when they fit.

A second charge lets you borrow against the equity in your home without touching your existing mortgage — useful when remortgaging isn’t the best move.

Overview

Keep your main deal, borrow against your equity

If you’re on a great fixed rate, have early repayment charges, or your circumstances have changed, a second charge mortgage can be a sensible way to raise funds without disturbing your first mortgage.

  • Borrow against your equity while keeping your current deal
  • Useful where remortgaging would trigger high early repayment charges
  • Options for the self-employed and changed circumstances
  • We compare second charge against remortgaging and further advances

Your home may be repossessed if you do not keep up repayments on your mortgage. A mortgage is a loan secured against your home.

Common questions

How is a second charge different from a remortgage?
A remortgage replaces your existing mortgage; a second charge sits alongside it as a separate loan secured on your home. Each has costs and benefits — we compare them for you.
Is my home at risk?
Yes — like any mortgage, a second charge is secured against your property and it could be repossessed if you don’t keep up repayments. We’ll make sure it’s affordable.
Who is second charge lending suitable for?
Often people with valuable fixed rates, early repayment charges, or changed income who still need to borrow. We’ll tell you honestly if a simpler route is better.
