Our Service

First of all, you'll need to have a quick chat with one of our advisers to talk about your situation and what you're looking for. This is usually done by phone and should take about 15 minutes, you can arrange your call here.

The idea here is to get a broad overview of your circumstances and give you an idea of whether or not you might be able to achieve what you're looking for, your adviser can also tell you at this point whether they will have to charge a fee based on the work involved in getting you a mortgage.

At the end of your first call, your adviser will arrange your factfind appointment, this will be a longer meeting, usually about an hour, gathering more detailed information about your situation.

This can be done by phone, video call or an in-person meeting, whatever suits you. We can also offer you the chance to provide this information online without the need for a longer meeting.

After your adviser has a completed factfind and a clear idea of your needs and objectives, they'll go away to find you the best and most appropriate deal on the market.

Once you're happy with your advisers recommendation, they’ll go about securing your Mortgage in Principle, also known as a Decision in Principle or Agreement in Principle, which is basically a promise from the lender that they’ll lend you money based on the information provided to them and subject to a suitable valuation of your property.

If you're buying a home, you can use your Mortgage in Principle to show estate agents you're a serious buyer and start making offers on properties.

When you're ready to apply for a mortgage, your adviser will collect documents from you and begin to package your application.

Once we have everything we need from you, we'll submit your full mortgage application and let you know when we can expect to hear back from the lender with an update.

While the lender has your application, they may ask for more information or additional documents, we will liaise with them and ensure you are kept up to date with any developments.

The lender will assess your application and make additional checks like valuing your property before they issue your mortgage offer. We will work to make this process as smooth and timely as possible.

Once you've accepted your mortgage offer, your solicitor will begin working through the legal process for your mortgage, they run a number of checks and searches to make sure the property is suitable and start drawing up the necessary contracts.

If you're buying a home, your conveyancer/solicitor will exchange contracts with the seller’s conveyancer/solicitor. you’ll also need to arrange buildings insurance, it’s required by your mortgage lender to have some in place from Exchange of Contracts, your Mortgage Advisor can help you with this.

The legal process can be confusing and may seem daunting, we'll be on hand to support you, answering questions and liaising with your solicitor where necessary.

Completion is the time where your mortgage funds are transferred to your solicitor in order to complete the purchase of your new property or to repay an existing mortgage. If you're purchasing a property, you'll be given the keys to your new home!
