Mortgage Broker London Tip 1
#1 Top Tip

Check your credit scores annually or before you make a major application

You should know what your credit rating is so you'll have a better idea what the likelihood is that your application will be approved and whether you'll have to pay higher interest rates/APRs.

Remember that errors can happen so it's important to check that your file doesn’t have any as they can prove detrimental to your score. Remember also that failed applications for credit will themselves lower your score.

Flexible Family Mortgage

Flexible family mortgages are mortgages designed for first time buyers where family members or associates can provide security for the loan using a variety of methods.

The first time buyer has to amass a minimum 5% deposit then the associate might put 20% or more of the value of the home into a savings account which pays interest as security for the loan. The first time buyer pays a lower interest rate on their mortgage compared to other mortgages of this type. Or the associate might opt to offer a percentage of their own property as security or they might place savings in an offset account to reduce the amount of the mortgage. The mortgage can be structured to involve either of these methods or a combination of all 3.

The risks facing the associate follow from the methods used – if they opt to use a percentage of their own property for example, they stand to lose this percentage in the event of default.

Selling? Consider ordering your own local authority search

  • One of the conditions that a lender imposes on a buyer buying a property with a mortgage is that the buyer must purchase a local authority search. Additionally, cash buyers often buy this search for their own peace of mind.

  • The local authority search takes the longest to be returned; anything from 1 week/10 days to 6 weeks and beyond sometimes. 

  • A seller can therefore pre-empt this by buying their own local authority search, which they can then sell onto a prospective buyer.

  • They also benefit by being notified of any planning orders etc.

Frequently Asked Questions: Mortgage Brokers Gloucester


The role of a mortgage broker is to take your information and compare multiple deals from different lenders, based on your specific details, to find you the best option.

The benefit of using a mortgage broker is having one expert doing the research and comparison for you, rather than dealing with multiple lenders who all want to sell you their own products. Our independent Gloucester mortgage brokers have access to better deals than the general public and can negotiate on your behalf.
Unless you have already found a mortgage product and aren't really interested in finding a better deal, it is always worth using a mortgage broker, and when your initial consultation is free with SAM Conveyancing, what have you got to lose?
Some homeowners want the convenience of borrowing with the same lender that they currently bank with. Even then, it is often worth going through a broker anyway, as they may be able to get you an exclusive offer from that very same bank that you won't have access to.
Most mortgage brokers make their money in a flat fee or a commission, which is paid to them by the lender. Some brokers charge a fee to the borrower which is normally payable as a flat fee, or it can be financed with the mortgage.
You'll need a mortgage approval in principle in order to budget, so you should get a mortgage broker before you start looking for houses and certainly before you make an offer on one. In fact, some people speak to a mortgage broker as soon as they decide to get serious about buying a home.
There's no need to meet a mortgage broker face to face. Our hand-selected mortgage experts offer convenient remote meetings by phone, for award-winning, national coverage.
A mortgage broker will be quicker purely based on their greater experience. They will be able to check your application to make sure it's not rejected for commonplace mistakes and they can steer you away from wasting your time applying for mortgage products or to lenders who are likely to turn you down.
*SAM Conveyancing has negotiated a FREE Mortgage Consultation with our panel mortgage broker. This allows you a free mortgage consultation to discuss your specific requirements and provide mortgage opportunities for the Service being requested. If you want to proceed with a formal mortgage application through your mortgage broker, then a mortgage application fee maybe payable. If there is a fee to pay for your mortgage application, it will be explained to you at the point of discussing your mortgage options.

You can disengage the services of your Mortgage Broker before making a formal application, and no fee will be levied.
