Specialist Products
Mortgages available on the high street typically have rigid criteria that can make it difficult for many people to access them. Individuals with a poor credit rating, the self-employed and those looking to develop a self-build are just some of the reasons that can make it challenging to obtain a standard mortgage.
Our Nottingham mortgage brokers have access to a wide range of specialist products created specifically for those who are struggling to get a mortgage and don’t fit the inflexible high street criteria. They can provide mortgage advice and support and guide you through the options available that suit your situation.
Some of the specialist mortgage products we can provide are;
- Bad Credit
- Debt consolidation
- Right to buy
- Self-build
- Buy To Let
- Let To Buy
(Your home may be repossessed if you do not keep up repayments on your mortgage. Most Buy-to-Let mortgages are not regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority. Think carefully before securing other debts against your home; your home may be repossessed if you do not keep up repayments on your mortgage)

Why Use a Mortgage Broker
The mortgage market is large and can be complex. With many different mortgage types available, offering different rates and different terms for repayments. Some mortgages offer ‘cashback’ incentives and many charge arrangement and other fees. Choosing to get a mortgage is one of the most significant financial commitments a person will undertake, so it makes sense to seek expert mortgage advice to help you make the right decisions.
What are Mortgage Brokers
Mortgage brokers, or mortgage advisors, are specialists in finding mortgages that fit the specific needs of their clients. They have received the relevant training and are qualified to provide mortgage advice and recommendations based on your financial circumstances. Mortgage brokers are authorised and regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority, which means that customers are protected if the mortgage advice received is not suitable, and compensation can be sought.
By using a mortgage adviser, you are accessing expert knowledge of the mortgage market. Before recommending a mortgage, they will ask you for information regarding your financial situation, including your income and your regular expenditure. Based on this information, they will then recommend suitable mortgage products.
Using a mortgage broker has three significant advantages versus sourcing a mortgage yourself;

Additional Services
As well as arranging the mortgage itself, a mortgage broker will review related products such as life insurance, mortgage protection and critical illness cover. They will already have a good knowledge of your financial circumstances and will, therefore, be able to recommend insurance products that ensure you and your family are fully protected.
Questions to Ask a Mortgage Broker
Are They Registered with the Financial conduct authority?
The first question to ask any mortgage broker is whether they are Financial conduct authority registered. By working with a mortgage broker who is registered with the Financial conduct authority, you have access to the Financial Ombudsman Service or the Financial Services Compensation Scheme should the mortgage advice you receive be incorrect. You can also check the Financial conduct authority register yourself by clicking here.
How Do They Provide Advice?
Do they provide mortgage advice over the phone, by email or in person? What information and reports will they provide following your meetings?
What Are There Charges
Your mortgage broker should be clear and transparent about any potential charges. Some advisers will provide free mortgage advice, however, they need to tell you if they are receiving a commission from the lender for arranging your mortgage.
Preparing For Your Meeting
To get the most from your meeting with a mortgage broker, it’s best to be prepared. They should provide you with details of what information they need to see before the meeting. This will include bank statements, proof of address, details of your existing mortgage (if applicable), household incomings and outgoings plus details of savings and insurance policies you have in place.
It’s also worth considering in advance the type of mortgage you would like. Would you like a fixed rate, and if so, what sort of timeframe would you like the rate fixed for? If your mortgage is for a buy to let property, would you like an interest-only mortgage? Maybe you’d like to release some capital from your home for a holiday or a new car, if so, how much additional borrowing is required.
Which Lenders do They Work With?
Some mortgage brokers are linked to specific banks or building societies and will, therefore, only recommend products that this institution provides. Ideally, your broker should work with as wider panel of lenders as possible to give you a full picture of the mortgage market and the products available to you.
