All FAQsHow much does your advice cost?
Your first appointment is free. If we arrange your mortgage there may be a fee. We typically charge £295, and it will never exceed £1,000. We'll confirm the exact amount before you commit to anything.
How much can I borrow?
Most lenders start with your income and existing commitments. Your credit history, deposit size and mortgage term all affect the final figure. Our borrowing calculator gives a quick guide, and a free call gives you a real one.
What is a decision in principle?
It's an indication from a lender of how much they may lend, based on the information you provide. It isn't a guarantee: a full application can still be declined or offered at a lower amount. It does show estate agents you're a serious buyer.
Can you help if I'm self-employed?
Yes. We regularly help sole traders, company directors and contractors. Some lenders accept a single year's accounts, and others assess retained profit or day rates. Read more.
