Questions
What mortgage options are available for first-time buyers?
We offer first-time buyer schemes with competitive rates, including government-backed options. Our advisors explain Help to Buy, shared ownership, and standard mortgages with low deposit requirements.
How does equity release affect inheritance?
Equity release reduces the property value available for inheritance. We explain lifetime mortgage terms, including interest roll-up mechanisms and inheritance protection options to preserve estate value.
What conveyancing fees can I expect?
Conveyancing costs vary by property value but start from £850 including disbursements. We provide fixed-fee quotes with no hidden charges through our panel of regulated solicitors.
Can I get a mortgage with poor credit?
Yes, we specialise in adverse credit mortgages. Lenders consider your current financial situation and improvements made, with options available for minor credit issues or more complex cases.
What commercial mortgage deposit is required?
Commercial mortgages typically require 25-40% deposits. We advise on lender-specific criteria and help structure applications to demonstrate business viability and repayment capacity.
