I have a variable rate mortgage with EBS at just over 60K, now I want to increase mortgage by 20k for home improvements. when i approached the ebs, posing as a potential new customer they gave me a more favourable rate than as an exisitng customer. When i went back to them and informed them of a better offer from competitor, they said theres no room for negotiation. Is this correct? standard practice with lenders?
Also why do lenders not allow one to consolidate loans in to one? I was quoted 5% for a topup with ebs, which I thought was exceptionally high.
Does anyone know if after having switched, and therefore consolidated home loan with home improvement loan, how do you go about claiming tax relief for the home improvements????
