Mortgage advice for First Time Buyers
Mortgage advice for First Time Buyers
Congratulations on taking this momentous step onto the property ladder!
Now that you’re ready to buy your first home you may have lots of questions. I know that a first time buyer mortgage can be daunting or confusing, I’ve been there! My aim is to guide you through it from start to finish so you know exactly what’s happening, and how much it will all cost.
Remember, I never charge for any mortgage or protection advice, so don’t hold back from asking anything that’s on your mind.
How much will I be able to borrow?
The way a lender determines how much you can borrow on your first time buyer mortgage depends on a number of things:
There is now more focus on affordability and expenditure. The process to working out how much you can afford is very different to the traditional approach of simply multiplying your annual personal (or rental) income by a pre-set multiple to obtain a maximum lending amount.
What we do
I pride myself on being up to date with regulation, legislation and the economic market. I work to understand your needs, match that to the requirements of lenders, and protect you and your dependants once you have bought your property.
This way, I can help you save time and money in the new world of mortgage advice.

I cannot recommend Marc and his team highly enough. They helped and supported me throughout the whole process of buying my first home and were always kind and professional.
Marc and Sooz made everything as simple as possible and went above and beyond to help. They were always there for guidance and to answer any questions, which was amazing as I was embarking on a process I had very limited knowledge about. I’m not sure I would have been able to do it without them!

Fantastic experience – Marc and Sooz have been outstanding from start to finish in helping guide me through the complex process of finding a suitable mortgage for a first-time buyer. Marc even helped guide me on what best/worst attributes to look out for when house hunting, and what kind of offers should be pitched to the vendors in the current market.
Other additional services such as mortgage cover were offered, but never pushed – which I appreciated.
Very easy to deal with and get in contact with when needed, professional at all times – Highly recommend MK Mortgages.
