Why do you need a Mortgage Broker?

Well like anything in life, we cannot know everything about everything! Whilst mortgages are not rocket science, however, they are a specialised Industry. As such we need to be professionally qualified and anyone that needs a qualification, generally means it is not as simple as everyone thinks!

What’s makes a good Broker?

Do they talk in plain and simple English to you? Do they respond to you in a timely fashion? Do they explain why they have picked a lender? Do they answer your questions straight away? Do you feel comfortable they are acting in your best intentions? If so, then chances are you have got a “good one!”

If not, well then you really need to find one, he/ she will plan out what you are trying to do and not just look at the short term plan, but how this fits in with your long term goals too. A mortgage is for life (well generally your working life) and not just for Christmas!

So many products out there (except 90% Loan to value right now!)

So how do they pick the right mortgage for you?

Well that is where the broker earns his/ her stripes! There are several ways to sort a mortgage and I can assure you the cheapest monthly payment or rate is often not the right or cheapest deal overall!
