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.

Had a great experience with Sharon Hipkiss and Clare Knighton. Super helpful, easy to talk to, and made the whole process way less stressful. Really knew their stuff and kept us in the loop the whole time. Definitely recommend. Thank you! 10/10

John was incredibly helpful throughout my entire mortgage process. He took the time to answer all my questions clearly and was always quick to respond. His guidance made a potentially stressful experience feel much more manageable. I’d definitely recommend John to anyone going through their home-buying journey—he made a big difference.

Vimal is without doubt the most personable and competent mortgage advisor we have used. He is meticulous and so efficient. He kept us updated at all points and talked us through exactly what we needed. He got us a great deal and we can’t thank him enough. He was always available and chased other companies to ensure everything went smoothly in a timely fashion. I would recommend him to everyone and will only be using him moving forward.

Joel has been amazing throughout the whole process. His knowledge of what was best for me was brilliant, and even when I had a little set back he was able to offer me a new deal within 24 hours. I have received regular updates throughout the entire process. I have recommended MAB to friends who are also looking for mortgages.
