Mortgage Broker London Tip 1
#1 Top Tip

Set up payment reminders

Your credit score is highly sensitive as to whether you make your credit card payments on time. Some lenders offer payment reminders through their online portals that can send you an email or text message reminding you when a payment is due.

You might also want to consider enrolling in an automatic payment scheme run by your credit card/loan providers to have payments automatically debited from your bank account. Be aware however that only the minimum required payment on your credit cards might be made – in the longer term, you should always be careful to manage your finances well.

Variable Rate Mortgage

The part of a variable rate mortgage that varies is the interest rate. Your repayments will fluctuate as the Bank of England base rate goes up and down, but they won’t necessarily mirror its every change. The rate is decided by the lender.

If the rate falls your repayments will be lower, which is great, but the opposite is also true. If the rate increases your repayments will also increase, so make sure you are prepared for the risks of choosing this type of mortgage.

Receiving a gifted deposit? Ensure that the donor/s have their IDs and proof of funds to hand.

When you instruct a solicitor to buy or sell a property, you need to give them proof of ID and address and proof of funds. 

If you're being helped with deposit funds from family members etc., your solicitor will want to know who these people are and where their money in turn has come from and they will have to prepare a signed and witnessed gifted deposit declaration .

Ensuring that anyone gifting deposit funds to you has these items in readiness guards against unnecessary delays.

Frequently Asked Questions: Mortgage Brokers Suffolk


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 Suffolk 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.
