  • This is a document from a lender indicating how much they might be willing to lend you based on your income, expenses, and credit history. While not a mortgage guarantee, it provides your borrowing potential. The majority of estate agents and developers also require this when you offer on a property, so it is best to complete one as early as possible

  • Our standard charge is £499 which is payable prior to submitting the full mortgage application. We can charge up to 1% of the loam amount for specialist cases

  • We do not charge any fee until you find a property and are ready to submit a full application, which means you will receive free advice & assistance until that point

    Expenses: Lenders assess your outgoings, including bills, loans, and other debts.

    Credit history: A strong credit score can increase borrowing potential.

    Deposit size: A larger deposit can improve the amount you’re eligible to borrow.

  • For residential purchases, the deposit amount typically depends on the type of mortgage and your profile as a buyer. Most lenders require at least 5% of the property’s purchase price, but a larger deposit (10-25%) can help you access better interest rates. For buy-to-let & commercial properties, lenders often require a larger deposit, typically around 20-40%

    • Valuation fees: Costs for the lender to value the property (can range from £150 to £1,500).
