Redemption charges

These are the charges that are laid down in the mortgage terms and conditions for redemption of the mortgage.

It should be noted that there are early redemption charges and just redemption charges the early ones are as a result of redeeming your mortgage prior to a certain date as predetermined in your mortgage offer. This type of redemption charge can be quite sever and allows the mortgage company to recoup any losses they might incur if you walk away from a preferential deal they might of given you earlier.

Once the early redemption period is over it is not to say that there will be redemption costs, though the redemption cost at this point will normally small in order to cover the administration associated with redeeming a mortgage in the normal course of business.

All these charges should be clearly stated in your original mortgage offer and form the basis of the mortgage deed that is signed at your solicitors office.
