Frequently asked

Common questions.

Got a question that isn't here? Just call 01708 202 175 — we love a chat.

Your initial consultation and recommendation are completely free. If you choose to proceed, we charge a one-off fee — typically £250 to £1,500 — depending on the complexity of your case. You'll always know the exact fee in writing before you commit to anything. We also receive a procuration fee from the lender, which we disclose upfront.
A Decision in Principle can be obtained within 24 hours. From a full application through to mortgage offer, expect 2–4 weeks for a straightforward case, and 4–8 weeks for more complex cases (self-employed, adverse, BTL portfolios). Completion timing then depends on conveyancing — typically another 6–10 weeks.
Absolutely. Some lenders will consider just one year of accounts, others want two or three. Day-rate contractors, directors taking salary plus dividends, and those with retained profits all have specialist routes. The key is matching you with the right lender — which is exactly what we do.
Many lenders offer "soft search" Decisions in Principle — these don't leave any footprint on your credit file. We always start with soft searches where possible, so you can shop around without harming your score. Only the full mortgage application stage involves a hard search.
Not at all. Most clients prefer to do everything by phone, video call and secure email — quicker for you, easier for us. If you'd rather meet in person, our office in Hornchurch is open by appointment Monday to Saturday.
Yes — defaults, CCJs, missed payments, IVAs and discharged bankruptcies all have specialist lenders who'll consider them. The key factors are how recent the issues were, how serious, and how stable your situation is now. We'll review your credit report with you and find the lenders who'll genuinely say yes.
