Remove financial links to previous partners

Your credit rating may decrease if you are still linked to both business and life partners you no longer have financial connections with. The suspect history of someone you have had shared finances with can affect your credit score.

Write to your reference agency and ask for a notice of disassociation.

Flexible Mortgage

To get flexibility you may not have to get a particular mortgage product – for example you can often leave a variable rate mortgage without a heft early repayment charge. You need to be aware you will pay extra for flexibility so ensure you will get the most from its benefits.

What are the benefits?
The benefits include overpaying, underpaying, taking payment holidays, making lump sum withdrawals and paying off mortgages early.


Perry Barr is a suburb of Birmingham as well as the name of a council constituency. ‘Perry’ is derived from the Latin word ‘parva’ meaning ‘small’, and ‘Barr’ derives from the Gaelic 'barr' meaning ‘hill’. The area was home to the football team Aston Villa from 1876 to 1897 at the football ground on Wellington Road.

Perry Barr used to be an urban district in Staffordshire from 1894 to 1928, but it is now considered to be incorporated into Birmingham. It has now been settled to be thought of as part of the West Midlands since 1974.

Notable places in Perry Barr include Birmingham’s Aston Technical College, the Aston Manor Cricket Club and the One Stop Shopping Centre.

Perry Barr Mortgage Broker Insider Tips

Let your mortgage lender know if you are needing to work to a deadline.

  • If you are using a mortgage to purchase your home in Perry Barr and want to get completed quickly, your mortgage lender should be able to advise you on whether or not this is possible. This could influence your mortgage lender and the mortgage product itself.
  • Taking a mortgage out can be a protracted process, especially since the Mortgage Market Review introduced greater restrictions, so it is important to get your valuation completed as soon as you can. 
  • This can be ordered via your bank or mortgage adviser and it can take around 2 weeks to receive the valuation. 
  • Please note the mortgage valuation and a building survey are two different things.
