Frequently Asked Questions

Is it worth using a mortgage broker in the UK?

Yes — for 99% of clients, using a mortgage broker is absolutely worth it. A broker can access lenders and products not available directly to the public. Brokers also help avoid declines, delays and costly mistakes — especially if you’re self-employed, on a visa, have complex income, or are buying your first home. Click to find out more.

Can a mortgage broker help if I’m self-employed or on a visa?

Absolutely 100 %. Self-employed income, contractor income, and visa-based applications often fall outside normal high-street criteria. I regularly help clients with Skilled Worker, spousal, business, and other residency categories secure the right lender — even when high-street banks say no.

What fees are there when getting a mortgage?

When purchasing a property, there are several costs to consider, including the deposit (a percentage of the property price), the lender’s product or arrangement fees, legal fees for your solicitor or conveyancer, valuation and survey costs, and Stamp Duty Land Tax — click to find out more.

Do mortgage brokers work with bad credit?

Yes — many specialist lenders are designed specifically for clients with missed payments, CCJs, defaults, IVAs, low or thin credit histories, or historic credit issues, and many of these lenders only work through brokers rather than directly with the public. Click to find out more.

What does the lender need when applying for a mortgage?

Lenders will first verify your identity and address, usually automatically through a credit reference agency and the electoral roll, but if this isn’t successful they may request a passport or driving licence along with a recent utility bill. They will also ask for recent bank statements and payslips, typically covering the last three months, to confirm your income and assess your regular outgoings.

Whats the difference between a repayment mortgage and an interest only mortgage?

A repayment mortgage means your monthly payments cover both the interest and the capital you’ve borrowed, so if you make every payment on time, the mortgage will be fully paid off by the end of the term. With an interest-only mortgage, your payments cover just the interest, keeping monthly costs lower, but the full loan amount will still need to be repaid at the end of the term.
