Below is a simplified breakdown of the essential steps involved in securing a mortgage with us.

Key Steps in the Mortgage Process

  • Initial Mortgage Consultation: Speak with one of our qualified mortgage advisers to explore your options and determine how much you can borrow.
  • Apply for an ‘In Principle’ Decision: We’ll submit an application to your chosen lender to receive an initial decision, giving you a clear idea of how much you can borrow.
  • Choose a Property: Once you’ve found your dream home, make an offer. At this stage, the estate agent will typically ask for proof that you have the necessary funds to proceed. You can provide them with your Decision In Principle certificate and supporting documents like bank statements.
  • Full Mortgage Application: After receiving your ‘In Principle’ approval, you’ll submit a full mortgage application. We’ll help guide you in selecting the right mortgage product and repayment option for your circumstances.
  • Appoint a Solicitor: A solicitor will handle the legal side of your property purchase, ensuring everything is in order.
  • Valuation and Survey: A property survey will be conducted, and we’ll review the findings with you to ensure there are no surprises.
  • Mortgage Offer: Once everything checks out, you’ll receive an official mortgage offer, which you can review and sign.
  • Exchange and Completion: Upon exchanging contracts, you’ll pay your deposit. Once completed, the property is officially yours.
  • First Repayment Letter: After completion, you’ll receive a letter outlining your repayment schedule and amounts due.
