Why not talk to us about a Mortgage Top-Up ?
Want to give yourself some more working from home space? Are you keen for a new kitchen? With our new Mortgage Top-Up, you may be able to use the value in your home to fund your home improvements.
What is a Mortgage Top-Up?
If the balance of your current Avant Money mortgage is less than the value of your home, you may be able to use this equity to borrow an additional mortgage to pay for home improvements. You can borrow up to 70% of the value of your home. For example, if your home is worth €400,000 and your current mortgage is €200,000 you could borrow up to €80,000.
How much can I borrow?
With a Mortgage Top-Up you can borrow from a minimum of €75,000. The maximum depends on the value of your home and what you can afford to repay. The purpose of your Mortgage Top-Up must be for home improvements. Choose a term of up to 35 years but not longer than the remaining term of your existing Avant Money mortgage. Choose from competitive fixed rates from 3 to 30 years. Check out our rates and flexible features here.
Availble to existing Avant Money mortgage customers who have held their existing mortgage at least 12 months.

Top-Up Mortgage: Important Information
Loan to Value (LTV ) means the amount of your mortgage compared with the value of your property. With our Top-Up product you can borrow up to 70% of the LTV of the property. This is calculated using the current value of your property or future estimated value of the property when all the home improvements are completed, and the sum of your existing mortgage plus your Mortgage Top-Up.
Availing of a Mortgage Top-Up will impact your overall LTV. This means that the interest rate options available on your Mortgage Top-Up, and on your existing mortgage loan when moving to a new rate will be based on your increased LTV. If you have any further questions, check out our FAQ page.
A Mortgage Top-Up is an additional mortgage loan. There may be additional costs such as valuation fees, insurance costs, solicitor fees to consider.

We will contact you 60 days before your current rate expires to let you know what your options are. Let us know what new product you want to move to at least 10 days before your existing fixed rate expires, and we’ll put the new product and rate in place as soon as your current rate expires.

Your rate, your choice.
