Barclays Mortgages & Product Transfers

We can review Barclays mortgage products available through our panel, including product transfers for existing customers, alongside relevant panel alternatives.

Getting a Mortgage with Barclays

Whether you're a first-time buyer, moving home, or looking to remortgage, Barclays offers a competitive range of mortgage products, including their popular Green Home mortgages. If you're an existing customer, we can secure a Barclays product transfer (rate switch) for you, often with no legal fees or valuation needed. But before you lock in, we'll check if another lender could save you more money.

Tell us about the property

Estimates are fine — we'll refine the numbers together.

Your home may be repossessed if you do not keep up repayments on your mortgage.

Barclays Product Transfers

If your current Barclays mortgage deal is coming to an end, you might be offered a product transfer. This is a quick way to secure a new rate without a full remortgage. We can arrange this for you while also checking if switching to a new lender would be cheaper.

First-Time Buyers & Home Movers

Barclays provides various options for those buying a property, including competitive LTV (Loan-to-Value) products and flexible lending criteria. We can help you navigate their requirements and prepare an application that reflects your circumstances.
