Questions
What mortgage options exist for first-time buyers with bad credit?
We specialise in adverse credit mortgages through our network of specialist lenders, offering tailored solutions based on individual circumstances and deposit size.
How does the Help-to-Buy scheme work?
The government provides an equity loan up to 20% of a new build property's value, requiring a 5% deposit and 75% mortgage. We guide clients through eligibility and application.
Can I remortgage with early repayment charges?
We assess all costs including exit fees to determine if remortgaging remains financially beneficial, often negotiating with lenders to reduce charges.
What are the costs of buy-to-let mortgages?
Costs include arrangement fees, higher stamp duty rates, and mandatory safety certifications. We provide full cost breakdowns before application.
