    Thank you

    One of our team will go through everything and be in touch with you soon.

    Mortgage Wise is not a comparison website, and there is no middle-man, so you’re already on track to dealing directly with a recognised mortgage adviser who will get you the best deal possible.

    What Our Clients Say

    Contacted a broker online when a local broker said she couldn’t help. Made sure I did my research first. I shouldn’t have worried, Sean and Team got me just what I needed and more. Very pleased with the service I received so thank you all so much.

    First-time Buyer

    How much deposit do I need as a first-time buyer?

    Most lenders require at least 5–10% deposit. A bigger deposit can give you access to better rates.

     

    Are there government schemes to help first-time buyers?

    Yes, such as the First Homes scheme, Shared Ownership, and Lifetime ISA. Eligibility varies.

     

    What costs should I expect when buying my first home?

    Besides your deposit, you’ll need to budget for legal fees, surveys, stamp duty (if applicable), and moving costs.

     

    Can I get a mortgage with no credit history?

    It's harder, but some lenders accept limited credit histories. A broker can help you find the right lender.

     

    How much can I borrow as a first-time buyer?

    It depends on your income, outgoings, and credit history. Most lenders offer 4–4.5x your annual income.
