Mortgage Advice
Our expert mortgage advisory service leverages 28 years of market experience to secure optimal financing solutions. We analyse all available products to recommend rates and terms specifically tailored to your financial circumstances and property goals. Unlike bank advisors, we operate independently across the full market to ensure unbiased recommendations. Our clients benefit from our extensive lender relationships and in-depth knowledge of underwriting criteria that enable successful applications even in complex cases.
Remortgaging
Our remortgaging specialists help clients reduce monthly payments, release equity, or access better terms. By analysing your existing mortgage structure against current market offerings, we identify cost-saving opportunities while considering exit fees and new loan conditions. We manage the entire transition process, including coordinating with solicitors and lenders, ensuring minimal disruption to your financial arrangements while maximising long-term benefits.
First-time Buyers
Designed for new property purchasers, our first-time buyer service demystifies the mortgage process through clear explanations and step-by-step guidance. We explain government schemes like Help-to-Buy, calculate realistic borrowing capacities, and recommend deposit sizes that balance affordability with competitive rates. Our clients receive priority handling and educational support to build confidence throughout their initial property purchasing journey.
Adverse Credit
We specialise in mortgage solutions for clients with credit challenges including county court judgments, defaults, or bankruptcy history. Our expertise comes from understanding which lenders consider remedial actions and how to present applications that highlight financial recovery. We help rebuild property ownership opportunities through tailored approaches that demonstrate current affordability and improved financial management.
Mortgage Protection
Our mortgage protection service provides tailored insurance solutions beyond standard bank offerings. We compare policies across life, critical illness, and income protection cover to create bespoke packages that match your family circumstances and loan structure. This ensures financial security for your dependants while avoiding overpayment for unnecessary coverage levels through precise needs assessment.

I wish you could give more than 5 . Ian and the girls from the mortgage store were exceptional! After my son son was let down by his bank for a mortgage One of the girls fitted him and his fianc in with Ian within 20 mins of being let down. It was fantastic. He got an in principle decision for them within the hour. He made them feel very comfortable and relaxed as this was their first home purhase. He was confident everything would be straight forward and smooth. With Ians help and Caroline too (who I spoke with a fair bit) it was totally problem free. I would highly recommend The mortgage

At different points in the process we dealt with the whole team and found them all to be so so helpful, it felt like they cared and completely understood that a remortgage can be stressful and did everything they could to make sure this whole thing was as stress free as possible. If we had a question, they had the answer or found the answer out as soon as they could. Could not recommend them enough.
