What Mortgage Brokers Do

Mortgage intermediaries advise on and arrange home loans, working from either a whole-of-market view or a defined lender panel. Firms differ in market coverage, and FCA rules require that coverage to be disclosed at the outset of advice.

Away from vanilla purchases, lender appetite varies widely, and matching case to lender is the skill being bought.

How to Choose the Right Mortgage Broker

Specialist knowledge of niche lenders is what separates firms when an application falls outside standard criteria. A short scoping call establishes lender access, typical turnaround and whether the firm has an appetite for your case.

Expect a written disclosure of how the firm is remunerated before any recommendation is made.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need a mortgage broker or can I go directly to a lender?

Going direct works for straightforward cases with a lender you already fit. The case for a broker is breadth: many lenders' criteria compared simultaneously, and knowledge of which specialist lenders accept cases the high street declines.

How much does a mortgage broker charge?

Charging varies: lender-paid only, a flat client fee, or a percentage on complex cases. FCA rules require the model and amount to be set out upfront, so ask for it in writing at the first conversation.

What documents do I need to provide to a mortgage broker?

Identity documents, address proof, bank statements, income evidence and details of debts form the core; self-employed applicants should have two to three years of accounts or tax calculations ready.

How long does the mortgage process take when using a broker?

Mainstream lenders typically issue an offer within two to six weeks of submission; specialist cases run longer. Active case management, chasing the lender and resolving queries promptly, is where a firm shortens the timeline.

Can a mortgage broker help if I have been declined by a lender?

Yes, and this is where criteria knowledge earns its fee: lenders differ sharply on credit history, income types and property construction, and a decline at one lender often converts to an approval at another with the right placement.
