I've just finished a small HMO conversion. Can I remortgage to release equity based on the new, higher valuation immediately, or do lenders typically require a seasoning period for properties with recent works?
Quick Answer
Lenders usually require a 6-12 month seasoning period post-renovation before remortgaging on a new, higher valuation, particularly for HMO conversions, though some specialist lenders offer exceptions.
