Frequently asked questions

Why do I need mortgage advice?

Getting a mortgage is likely to be one of the biggest financial decisions you'll ever make, and it's important you make a choice that suits your circumstances. A mortgage adviser can search the market on your behalf and recommend the right deal for you.

How do I apply for a mortgage?

The process involves providing lots of information to lenders (and filling out a whole lot of forms). Being well prepared is key and can make the process move smoothly. This is where we can help do the legwork.

How do I get a mortgage if I'm self-employed?

Being self-employed doesn't mean you can't get a mortgage. Ensuring your books are all up-to-date and keeping a clear record of your finances can help strengthen your position as a borrower. In this case, we'd recommend speaking with a mortgage adviser to find out what you need to do.

What is a mortgage?

A mortgage is a term for a loan that helps you buy a home. Property is expensive, unfortunately, and few of us have hundreds of thousands of pounds lying around. This is where lenders come into play. 

What is protection?

Protection secures your family and home against the worst-case scenario. It's also important to note that your needs are likely to change throughout your life. Perhaps you're moving jobs, starting a family, or even downsizing. These are all things you need to consider when looking for protection.

How much of a deposit will I need?

The amount will usually need to be at least 5% of the value of the property you’re hoping to buy. What's more, the bigger your deposit, the smaller the mortgage you’ll need to take out to pay for the rest of the property's value.

Our borrowing calculator can give you an idea of how much you can borrow based on your deposit.

Due to distressing family circumstances, I found myself renting in February 2024. It took me a while to get over the loss of my previous home and I finally felt ready to look for a new home in the autumn of 2025, as I knew I did not want to stay in my rental home forever. I started looking for a house in October 2025, found one I loved and started the mortgage process via another broker. Unfortunately, it was classed as a zero valuation as the construction was outside the lenders lending criteria. I found another broker and restarted the process. Again, got to valuation stage but the valuer stated it was not suitable security. Although I really wanted the house, I listened to Pip’s reasoning and found another house that same month. I viewed it, really liked it, knew it was within budget, and made an offer, which was accepted. I updated Pip, who started the process and found a lender who could work with my history and budget. Pip was a true godsend. He remained calm and positive throughout the initial process. That helped a lot as although I am resilient, the previous experience with the other house had left me feeling deflated. Then Pip truly worked his magic with the lender. My case was then passed on to Emma, who chased any documents requested and kept me up to date with the process. I leapt for joy when I found out one of the areas I had been dreading - the valuation - had been completed and was absolutely fine! On 4th August, I ugly cried when Pip called me just after 10am. We chitchatted about the whole journey and then Pip revealed my mortgage offer had just come through! I’ve not been an easy client profile at all but Pip has been amazing throughout all of this. We all have life experiences that knock us sideways, but there are people who are always willing to help insofar as they can. Pip is genuinely one of those people. He loves what he does and does it extremely well! To Pip, Emma, and Dominic (who is arranging my my life insurance and critical illness cover) at MAB, I will never be able to find the right words to be able to thank you for all you have done for me. You really have been instrumental in brightening my family’s future and for that, I will be eternally grateful.

Shan Payne our mortgage advisor could not have been anymore prompt or helpful, especially as first time buyers. Alongside collaborating with Clare Knighton, their responses and updates were efficient, knowledgeable and easily legible. Myself and my partner cannot fault the service we’ve received and are over the moon with the pace of our progress and feeling confident in our understanding of the buying process.
