In 2023, the largest share of mortgage sales in the UK was remortgage products, followed by first-time buyer sales. Of the total number of mortgage sales that year, remortgage products totaled almost 311,000 and first-time buyer mortgages, 282,000. A remortgage is when a new mortgage is taken out for the process of paying off a previous mortgage. In this case, the new property is used as security on the new mortgage.

Product sales data (PSD) is collected by the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) and includes new sales (including remortgages); transfers, top-ups, alterations (such as mortgage switches with the same lender). It does not include data on transactions made through fund supermarkets and nominee accounts (such as those used in platforms), and increments and renewals are generally not included according to the source. In the UK, all home finance providers are required to submit the mortgage PSD.
