Choosing a mortgage broker gives you access to expert advice and a wide selection of mortgage deals tailored to your needs.
Unlike going directly to a lender, a broker searches through thousands of options, including exclusive products that may not be available on the high street.
This can be especially helpful when looking for a mortgage in Wales, where lender criteria and property types can vary.
With in-depth knowledge of the market, a mortgage broker like us can simplify the process and find a mortgage that suits your circumstances, whether you are buying a home or investing in property.

If you are a first-time buyer and unsure where to start, speaking with a mortgage advisor can be a great first step.
We make the process easier by breaking down industry jargon and helping you understand what to expect. With the support of your mortgage broker, you can get an idea of how much you could borrow and even secure a mortgage agreement in principle within 24 hours of your initial appointment.
This can be especially useful when making offers in competitive housing markets, from thriving cities to quieter towns and rural communities.
Moving home is an exciting step, but managing your mortgage alongside everything else can feel overwhelming.
With the right mortgage broker by your side, the process can be much easier. We work to streamline everything, giving you one less thing to worry about while you focus on packing up and settling into your new home.
Whether you are staying in the same area or relocating to a different part of Wales, we will help you find the right mortgage for your situation.
As your initial fixed period comes to an end, it is important to consider your next steps.
Our team of qualified mortgage advisors will provide professional remortgage advice, ensuring you find the right deal for your situation. Whether you want to release equity for home improvements, secure a better interest rate, or consolidate debts, we are here to help.
Many homeowners choose to remortgage to reduce their monthly payments or make the most of their property’s value. No matter where you are based, we will guide you through the process and find the best deal available.
Buy-to-let mortgages work differently from standard residential mortgages, with different deposit and affordability requirements.
Our mortgage advisors work closely with landlords across Wales, from those purchasing their first rental property to experienced investors growing their portfolios. We stay up to date with the latest lending criteria and have strong relationships with buy-to-let lenders.
If you are considering remortgaging a rental property or exploring let-to-buy options, we will guide you through your choices.
A bridging loan provides short-term property finance when time is a key factor. These loans can help if you need to buy a new home before selling your current one, secure an auction property, or fund renovations that a standard mortgage would not cover.
Bridging loans are secured against property and can often be arranged quickly. If you are looking at property opportunities that require fast action, we can help you explore the options available.
Securing a mortgage when self-employed can feel more complicated, as lenders assess income differently.
Our mortgage advisors specialise in helping self-employed applicants find lenders who understand business owners and freelancers. If you own more than 20 to 25 percent of your company, lenders will class you as self-employed. Most require at least two years of trading history, using tax returns and business accounts to assess affordability.
We will guide you through the process, helping you secure a mortgage that reflects your income and circumstances.
There are government-backed schemes available to help buyers purchase a home, whether you are a first-time buyer or looking for an alternative route onto the property ladder.
Though popular in England, Right to Buy is no longer available in Wales. However, there are still other schemes designed to support buyers.
Understanding which schemes you may be eligible for can be complicated. A mortgage broker can help you explore your options and find the best route to homeownership.
If you have had credit issues in the past, securing a mortgage can feel difficult, but there are lenders who specialise in this area.
Bad credit mortgages are designed for applicants with missed payments, defaults, or CCJs. While interest rates and deposit requirements may differ from standard mortgages, there are still options available.
We have access to specialist lenders who take a more flexible approach. Whether you are buying in a city or a more rural part of Wales, we will guide you through the process and help you find a mortgage suited to your circumstances.
Some mortgage applications are more complex than others. If you have an irregular income, are purchasing a non-standard property, or face other challenges, finding the right lender can be more difficult.

If you are over 50 and looking for a mortgage, there are options designed to suit your needs. Whether you are moving home, remortgaging, or releasing equity, lenders offer products that take retirement income into account.
A mortgage broker like us can help you explore the available options and find a mortgage that supports your plans both now and in the future.

The deposit required depends on your circumstances and the type of mortgage you are applying for. Most standard residential mortgages need at least 5 percent of the property’s purchase price.
If you have a history of bad credit, lenders may ask for a larger deposit, typically between 10 and 15 percent, to reduce their risk.
For buy-to-let mortgages, the deposit is usually 20 to 25 percent, as lenders consider these properties higher risk.
Self-employed applicants follow the same deposit criteria as employed borrowers, but proving affordability with tax returns and business accounts is essential.
Deposit requirements can also vary depending on the lender and property location. Whether you are buying in a rural part of Wales or a major city, speaking to a mortgage broker can help you understand what is needed for your situation.
The mortgage application process starts with an initial discussion where we assess your financial situation and property goals.
We will help you secure an agreement in principle (AIP), which shows how much a lender is willing to offer, making you a more credible buyer.
Next, you will complete a full mortgage application, submitting documents such as payslips, bank statements, and proof of identity.
The lender will then conduct a property valuation to ensure the agreed price matches its market value. If everything checks out, you will receive a formal mortgage offer, allowing you to move forward with the purchase.
Lenders may have different timescales depending on demand in the area, so the process may move more quickly in some locations than others. As a mortgage broker in Wales, we handle everything for you, ensuring the process runs smoothly.
Yes, getting a mortgage with bad credit is possible, but options may be more limited.
Lenders will assess issues such as missed payments, defaults, or CCJs more closely, and you may need a higher deposit, usually around 10 to 15 percent. Interest rates may also be higher due to the increased risk.
Some lenders specialise in bad credit mortgages, offering solutions tailored to applicants with adverse financial histories. A mortgage broker can connect you with these lenders, helping you find a mortgage that suits your circumstances.
Certain lenders base their decisions on regional market conditions or affordability checks, so mortgage options may differ depending on where you are looking to buy.
A mortgage agreement in principle (AIP) is a document from a lender stating how much they are willing to lend based on an initial review of your income and credit history.
It is not a guarantee of a mortgage but shows sellers and estate agents that you are a serious buyer.
Our mortgage advisors in Wales can secure an AIP within 24 hours. This can be useful in fast-moving property markets, where having an AIP in place may strengthen your position when making an offer.
Booking a mortgage appointment with us is quick and easy.
You can schedule a call online at a time that suits you, choosing either a telephone or video appointment with one of our experienced mortgage advisors.
The appointment is completely free and designed to provide clarity on your options and the next steps in your mortgage journey.
We assist customers across Wales and the rest of the UK, helping them secure the right mortgage for their needs, whether they are buying their first home, remortgaging, or exploring investment opportunities.
To apply for a mortgage, you will need to provide:
Lenders may also ask for details of any existing financial commitments, such as loans or credit cards.
Some lenders have different requirements based on property location. A mortgage broker can help you prepare the necessary documents and ensure your application meets lender expectations.
The time it takes to secure a mortgage varies, but the process typically takes between four and eight weeks from application to completion.
Delays can occur due to factors such as:
Demand in some regions of Wales may impact the speed of mortgage approvals, especially if certain lenders are receiving a higher volume of applications.
A mortgage broker can help you navigate these factors, keeping the process as smooth as possible.
A fixed-rate mortgage keeps your interest rate and monthly payments the same for an agreed period, usually between two and five years, providing stability and predictable costs.
A variable-rate mortgage, on the other hand, changes based on the Bank of England’s base rate or your lender’s standard variable rate. This means your payments could increase or decrease over time.
The right choice depends on your financial plans and risk tolerance. Mortgage rates and product availability can sometimes vary based on regional lending policies, so exploring your options with a mortgage broker can help you find the best deal.
