The mortgage broker or mortgage adviser could actually save you a lot of time and stress as they will handle every bit of documentation from start to finish.
Firstly, searching for the right deal to applying and communicating with the mortgage lender on your behalf.
Mortgage brokers have expert knowledge and experience in the mortgage market and will be able to recommend the best deals applicable to your current situation.
They should have access to specialist mortgage software which allows them to search through the mortgage deals much faster and more thoroughly than you could possibly do yourself.
A mortgage broker should know which mortgage lenders are likely to accept you and will help you avoid deals that you are likely to be unsuccessful in being accepted.
You will also have the opportunity of recourse if you take out a mortgage using a broker if the mortgage turns out to be unsuitable.
This isn’t available if you apply for a mortgage without taking advice.
