Ok. I'm a bit of a novice in this department. We are in the nice position of now having equity in our house. We bought a doo'er upper and have done it up! So we have £188,000 left on the mortgage but based on sales in the area it's worth about 300,000. So technically we have about £112,000 equity in it. But what's the best thing to do?
It would benefit from a double extension on the back but we don't have the funds spare funds for that. But could we remortgage and 'release' the funds for it out of the equity?
Or can we use that equity as a deposit on a new one? Is that how it works?
I havnt a clue what's the best thing to do really and wondered what options we have?
Thanks.
