- Mortgages
Our mortgage services are limited to advising on first charge mortgage products only. We will consider all lenders we have access to before recommending a suitable mortgage product following an assessment of your personal needs and circumstances. This will include a detailed assessment of affordability.
When selecting a lender we will not consider those that are only available by you going direct to them. The lenders we will consider representative of the whole of the market (Please ask us list of lender).
First Charge only
Where you are increasing your borrowing or consolidating existing loans you may have the option of;
- taking out a further advance with your existing lender
- arranging a separate second charge mortgage
- borrowing through an unsecured loan.
Whilst these may be more appropriate for you, we will not consider the merits of these when making our recommendation to you.
For Non-investment protection contracts we are an intermediary and will act on your behalf when providing advice and making our personal recommendation(s) to you. We will do this based on a fair and personal analysis of insurers for term assurance, income protection and critical illness. Ask us for a list of insurers we offer insurance from.
For general insurance contracts we are an intermediary and will act on your behalf when recommending an insurer based on your demands and needs from a fair analysis of the market. The insurers we consider will be listed to you when we carry out our research. It will be your responsibility to ensure the policy meets your demands and needs for building and/or contents, private medical insurance, accident sickness and unemployment.
We charge a fee of £995 for providing advice and submitting your mortgage application. This fee becomes payable on application. For complex cases we charge fee of 1% of loan amount.
We will receive and retain any commission paid by the lender when your mortgage completes. This amount will be confirmed by the lender in their disclosure document.
Should you wish you can request to view the commission rates from each of the lenders we have considered at the time that we make our recommendation to you.
Please note our fee will still be charged should the lender reject your mortgage application due to you not disclosing any material information about your personal situation. It should also be noted we do not provide a refund should you decide not to proceed with the mortgage loan after we have made a recommendation to you.
We do not charge a fee as we will receive commission from the provider after the policy has been placed on risk.
We are committed to providing the highest standard of advice and service possible. The interest of our customers is paramount to us and to achieve this we have designed our systems and procedures to place you at the heart of our business. In doing so, we will:
- be open, honest and transparent in the way we deal with you;
- not place our interests above yours;
- communicate clearly, promptly and without jargon;
- seek your views and perception of our dealings with you to ensure it meets your expectations.
Certain protection and insurance contracts allow you the right to cancel after a contract has been put in force. Prior to you entering into a contract of protection or insurance we will provide you with specific details should this apply to include: its duration; conditions, practical instructions and any costs for exercising it, together with the consequences of not exercising it.
