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.

How much 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.

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 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.

Excellent service! Mike has been brilliant throughout, helping us understand the mortgage process and always being responsive to emails and phone calls. As first-time buyers, we weren't familiar with the process, but Mike has guided us through every step, making everything much easier to understand and less stressful. We really appreciate his patience, professionalism and support throughout. Highly recommended!

The service I received was excellent. Paula went out of her way to make sure I understood what was going on and had everything I needed. I felt very safe even though I was dealing with things I personally find quite daunting. I was reassured and supported every step of the way and any questions I had were answered promptly and clearly. Any setbacks were explained and I was able to obtain my mortgage offer without too much stress and worry. I would definitely recommend this service for mortgage advice.

An excellent mortgage advice service with a senior mortgage advisor Sean. He is efficient, thorough and an effective communicator. His creditials, knowledge and experience are impeccable. I would highly recommend him and the services he offers. After a very poor experience with the previous financial advisor, Sean was an absolute god send. I cannot thank him enough. Excellent service and customer care.

I got to know James from Mortgage Advice Bureau through a friend. I got in contact and James was on the front foot from the get-go. Timely updates with insightful communication. Top notch service by all standards. Very opened to accommodate all the questions we had and I will definitely recommend James Barfoot and MAB to anyone who's looking for advice on any mortgage process.

A really excellent service overall. Nick Gent has supported and advised me over several years, helping me navigate mortgages by supporting me with identifying what my mortgage needs are, and finding the most suitable mortgage for me. His expertise and guidance were invaluable throughout the process. I have also been supported by Emma Pearson, who has been attentive and proactive in managing my mortgage application, keeping everything on track and making the process as smooth as possible. I would highly recommend Mortgage Advice Bureau to anyone looking for knowledgeable advice and excellent customer service.
