How to get a mortgage - or remortgage - in Frome
Frome is a picturesque town situated 13 miles south of Bath, 43 miles east of Taunton (the county town) and 25 miles southeast of Bristol. Until 1650, Frome was the largest town in Somerset, with a larger population than Bath. The economy of the town grew due to its success in the wool and cloth industry. This industry was overtaken by the metal-working and printing industries which have still not left the town.
There is transport available to Bath, Bristol, Warminster and further afield from the town which means often people live in this pleasant town and commute into the larger cities and settlements for work.
Entertainment in the town includes the Frome festival which runs each summer, the two theatres and the cinema. The two theatres are the Memorial Theatre and the Merlin Theatre; additionally there is a pub theatre which is the only one within the county.
The mortgage application process has 4 stages regardless of which mortgage lender you use:
- Approval in principal (AIP)
- Mortgage in principal (MIP)
- Mortgage valuation
- Mortgage Offer

Regularly moving house can affect your credit score
You will often be asked “Have you lived at this address for longer than 3 years?” because if you haven’t been registered at one address for a long period of time this can have a negative effect on your credit rating.
Lenders favour stability and consistency over constant change so if they see evidence of you regularly moving on your credit report they may be less likely to lend to you.
Offset Mortgage
Offset mortgages are those in which you have a savings account linked to your mortgage. The savings account you link it with will no longer receive interest, but the benefit is you don’t pay interest on your mortgage up to the value of your savings account.

Mortgage Broker Tips for the Conveyancing Process
For fast conveyancing in Frome, the trick is to choose the right solicitor from the outset.
- Whilst this may seem like an obvious one, it's not just the standard of reviews that means a solicitor is good. It is also the volume of work.
- You need someone who values high communication levels and will work with your best interests in mind at all times. If a solicitor is overworked, your case may get overlooked, which can increase the chance of delays and poor prioritisation of clients.
- At SAM Conveyancing we aim for completion within 6-8 weeks. For us, we make sure your deadline is as achievable as possible.
