Services
Mortgages
Go Direct provides comprehensive mortgage comparison services across fixed, tracker, and discounted rate products. Our platform connects clients with exclusive deals from major UK lenders while offering expert guidance on first-time buyer schemes, equity assessments, and affordability calculations. Advisors help navigate complex criteria for standard applications and specialist cases requiring portfolio or adverse credit mortgages.
Remortgages
Our remortgage specialists help homeowners access better rates and release equity for home improvements or debt consolidation. We compare thousands of products daily including fee-free valuations, free legal work options, and deals tailored for complex cases with CCJs or previous bankruptcies. Advisors ensure clients understand redemption penalties and new product tie-ins before switching.
Buy to Let
We specialise in buy-to-let mortgages for individual landlords and portfolio investors. Services include stress test evaluations, limited company BTL solutions, and HMO financing. Our tools calculate rental income requirements (125% at pay rate) while advisors explain tax implications and recommend appropriate structures for short-term holiday lets or long-term residential investments.
Life Insurance
Our protection services cover term life, critical illness, and income protection policies with 50% commission sacrifice reducing premiums. Advisors explain policy differences between decreasing term cover for mortgages and level term protection for family financial security. We compare providers like Aviva and Legal & General to find cost-effective solutions with flexible payout options.
Bad Credit Mortgages
Specialist mortgage solutions for clients with credit issues including CCJs, defaults, or bankruptcy discharge. We work with non-conforming lenders who assess applications through traditional underwriting rather than automated scoring. Our advisors explain rehabilitation requirements and how consecutive on-time payments can transition clients to mainstream products after three years.
