Switcher Mortgages
Switch and Save with Our Switcher Mortgage Services
At Harbour View Mortgages, we understand your current mortgage may not always be the best fit for your evolving needs. As regulated mortgage brokers, we search the whole market to find you a better deal and lower your payments — giving you expert, independent advice on switching.
Why Consider Switching Your Mortgage?
Lower Interest Rates
Interest rates fluctuate over time. Switching to a mortgage with a lower rate can significantly reduce your monthly payments and overall interest costs.
Better Mortgage Terms
You might be able to find a mortgage with more favourable terms, such as flexible repayment options, reduced fees, or shorter loan periods, aligning better with your current financial situation.
Improved Features
Modern mortgages often come with improved features such as offset accounts, redraw facilities, and more flexible repayment options. Switching can help you take advantage of these benefits.
Consolidate Debt
If you have other high-interest debts, switching your mortgage can help you consolidate these into a single, more manageable payment at a lower interest rate.

Switcher Mortgage FAQs
Can I switch my mortgage to a new lender in Ireland?
Yes. Switching your mortgage to a new lender can secure a lower interest rate or better features. As your broker, we compare the market and handle the process with you from start to finish.
How much can I save by switching my mortgage?
It depends on your outstanding balance, the rate difference and your remaining term — even a small rate reduction can save thousands over the life of the loan, and some lenders offer cashback. We calculate your specific saving first.
What is the process of switching a mortgage?
You get approval with the new lender, the property is valued, and solicitors move the mortgage charge from your old lender to the new one. It typically takes a few weeks, and we guide you through each step.
Are there costs to switching a mortgage?
There can be valuation and legal fees, though these are sometimes covered by lender cashback offers. We always check the net benefit before recommending a switch.
