Frequently asked questions

Why do I need mortgage advice?

Getting a mortgage is likely to be one of the biggest financial decisions you'll ever make, and it's important you make a choice that suits your circumstances. A mortgage adviser can search the market on your behalf and recommend the right deal for you.

How do I apply for a mortgage?

The process involves providing lots of information to lenders (and filling out a whole lot of forms). Being well prepared is key and can make the process move smoothly. This is where we can help do the legwork.

How do I get a mortgage if I'm self-employed?

Being self-employed doesn't mean you can't get a mortgage. Ensuring your books are all up-to-date and keeping a clear record of your finances can help strengthen your position as a borrower. In this case, we'd recommend speaking with a mortgage adviser to find out what you need to do.

What is a mortgage?

A mortgage is a term for a loan that helps you buy a home. Property is expensive, unfortunately, and few of us have hundreds of thousands of pounds lying around. This is where lenders come into play. 

What is protection?

Protection secures your family and home against the worst-case scenario. It's also important to note that your needs are likely to change throughout your life. Perhaps you're moving jobs, starting a family, or even downsizing. These are all things you need to consider when looking for protection.

How much of a deposit will I need?

The amount will usually need to be at least 5% of the value of the property you’re hoping to buy. What's more, the bigger your deposit, the smaller the mortgage you’ll need to take out to pay for the rest of the property's value.

Our borrowing calculator can give you an idea of how much you can borrow based on your deposit.

Dan H was a massive help to me and was the only person to really understand what was needed for me and how to deal with the many of challenges we had. He can translate the complex sentences into more an understandable way where it is easier to deal with.

James at Mortgage Advice Bureau was fantastic throughout our house purchase. He made the mortgage side of things feel straightforward and was always on hand to answer questions, explain things clearly, and keep everything moving along. A big thank you as well to Scott, who helped out whenever needed and was equally helpful and responsive. Buying a house can be stressful, but having James and Scott supporting us made a real difference. We'd happily recommend them to anyone looking for mortgage advice.

Graham in particular has been a big help, answering all my silly questions. It’s really hard as a first time buyer understanding the process and he made it very easy. Clear correspondence from both Kate and Graham - appreciate your help!

We used Sam when we moved home 5 years ago and he was great then. It was time to remortgage and Sam was fantastic again. Unfortunately in that time I got myself in some financial difficulty which made me believe that we wouldn’t be able to remortgage at a good rate however Sam managed to find us a great deal given the circumstances. He was patient, non-judgmental, understanding and get us informed throughout the whole process. Would highly recommend.
