Other initial considerations include:

  • The value of the property you’re interested in buying
  • How much you can afford to repay
  • The length of time that you want to pay the mortgage back

When you apply for a mortgage the lender will assess your affordability by assessing your finances and credit history. To be prepared and to manage your expectations, you can use Check My File to gain a better insight into what lenders are going to be looking at.

Once you have assessed your circumstances and feel that a mortgage is feasible for you, one of our talented mortgage advisers will be able to help you through the application process and we will provide advice on whether you should apply for a fixed rate or tracker rate mortgage.

It is important to consider the other costs that may be required in the process of looking for your new home, including property and conveyancing services, home insurance and essential household items and furniture.
