MORTGAGES - Updated: February 3, 2008    

 

We provide a personal mortgage service which includes the following types of situations:

Mr and Mrs A both have reasonably well paid jobs but are finding it difficult to get their foot on the housing ladder in London where they live. We use a computer system that can immediately identify one or more lenders that would be willing to lend them the amount they need.

Mr B has inherited some money and wishes to use it as a deposit on a 'buy to let' property. We can arrange the most suitable type of mortgage but will also be happy to talk through the wider pros and cons of what he is wanting to do.

Mrs C and her husband have been with the same lender for many years and wonder if they are paying too much for their mortgage. We will carry out a review of the remortgages that are available to them and advise them accordingly.

Mr and Mrs D would like to buy a home but their incomes are just not sufficient and they have student debts to repay. Mr D's father does however, have a relatively high income and a small mortgage. We can recommend a lender who will allow Mr D's father to act as guarantor so that they can purchase a home of their own after all.

Mr and Mrs E have a substantial mortgage that was to have been repaid by a number of endowment policies. There is a large projected shortfall. We can review the endowment policies and recommend whether any should be surrendered. We would then calculate how much repayment mortgage is required to make sure that the mortgage is likely to be repaid.

Miss F is a busy production manager in television but wants to keep on top of her mortgage costs. We will find the most attractive fixed rate or other mortgage package and automatically review her mortgage before the initial terms end.

Mortgages are part of good financial planning

When we recommend the most suitable mortgage to someone we do not do so in a vacuum. We try to be aware of the person's overall financial situation and will seek to raise other issues, if appropriate. For example, a higher rate tax payer may find the tax advantages of an offset mortgage very attractive. On the other hand, a basic rate tax payer may find an offset mortgage justs costs them more for no real benefit.

In some cases we will encourage someone to reduce their mortgage requirements by using money that is invested by pointing out the pros and cons of early mortgage repayment.

We are, of course, very aware of the most appropriate types of life assurance or health insurance policies that might be required and our independence of any product provider allows us to find the most competitive of these by searching the available market.
