Want an estimate before we talk?
Use our free Mortgage Affordability check to explore lender estimates.
- No credit search
- No account needed to start
The check gives estimates, not mortgage offers. It's an information tool, not advice: it doesn't give a recommendation, a decision in principle, or a guarantee that any lender will lend to you.

A few questions before we talk
Here are some common questions. If there's anything else you'd like to know, book a free call and ask us.
Do I need a property in mind?
No. You can speak to us before you have found a property. It often helps to understand your options, and what lenders may ask for, before you start viewing.
Will you credit-check me?
No. An initial conversation involves no credit check at all. If you later apply for a mortgage, the lender will run one — and we'll tell you exactly when that happens.
Do I need documents ready before we talk?
No — just yourself. A rough idea of your income and deposit is enough for the first call. If you'd like a Decision in Principle straight afterwards, our what-to-expect page lists what helps to have to hand.
What happens after I book?
You'll get a confirmation email with a link to change or cancel. We ring you at the time you picked, and the call takes about 20 minutes. Appointments are by phone. If you'd rather not wait, you can ring us on 02922 820 840 (Mon–Fri 9am–5:30pm).
How do you get paid?
Your first call is free. There may be a fee for arranging a mortgage and the precise amount will depend on your circumstances, this could be up to £499 but a typical fee would be £199. We also receive a commission from the lender. Any fee and the commission are disclosed in writing, and you'll see them in your illustration.
Let's talk about your next move.
