There's more to choosing the right mortgage than just comparing products online or asking your bank. Some offers might appear to be great on the face of it, but knowing which mortgages will actually meet your needs is a real skill.

That's where mortgage brokers come in. A broker takes the time to get to know your personal needs, and can compare hundreds of different mortgages that you wouldn't have access to if you were going it alone.

They’re regulated

To work in the UK, mortgage brokers have to be regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA). They have a duty of care to ensure that you get the right deal for you and that you don’t get a mortgage you can’t afford. This is a legal requirement.

They know the market

Price comparison sites are great for doing some initial research, but they can’t match the knowledge of an expert. Brokers live and breathe the mortgage market - they’re experts who are doing it every day. They know when new mortgages come on the market, when lenders change their criteria, and if there’s particular offers available. 

A broker can cut through the noise and find the right mortgage for your unique situation. Get in touch and speak to one of our Mortgage Experts to find out what your options could be.

They save you time

Finding the right mortgage can take a long time when doing it alone. Wading through comparison sites can get old pretty quickly, and you’ve then got to weigh up the pros and cons of the deals you find.

Our Mortgage Experts take the time at the start to get to know exactly what you need, and will carefully research which mortgage is right for your circumstances. They’ll think of things you hadn’t even considered before - like whether you can make overpayments or if you’ll get a penalty for paying off your mortgage early. 

They’ll be busy working for you while you focus on other things.

They understand mortgage lenders

It’s not what you know, it’s who you know, right? Our Mortgage Experts work with mortgage lenders every day, and they build solid relationships which can be really beneficial for your application.

They’ll have the experience to know which mortgage lenders have what requirements. From this, they’ll know which lenders are most likely to accept you. It’s especially important if you have bad credit or a complex income - they’ll be able to look at bespoke mortgages from specialist lenders. 

Brokers can provide a human element to your application, explaining your personal situation to mortgage underwriters, and fighting your corner if anything gets tricky. 

They’ll find the right deal for YOU

If your broker doesn’t recommend a suitable mortgage and can’t justify why they’ve recommended that particular mortgage to you, then you can complain and claim compensation. So it’s very much in their interest to find you the right mortgage, at the right rate. 

Your home is probably the biggest purchase you’ll ever make, so it makes sense to get expert advice before making a final decision. It can also be a really stressful time, and having someone who’s done it many times before can be a huge comfort.
