FIRST TIME BUYERS

Where do you start?

It might seem obvious, but first-things-first, let us help you understand what you can afford before you even starting looking at properties. We can show you:

 

  • How much you need upfront for your deposit & buying costs

  • How much you can borrow

  • What the monthly cost will be

 

Everything will start to become clearer for you and whether you're buying a standard property or through a Government Scheme such as Help-to-Buy or Shared Ownership, we will support and guide you through the process

REVIEWS FROM OUR CLIENTS BUYING THEIR FIRST HOME

I cannot thank Mark enough for his help with my mortgage. Mark explained everything in great detail and was always available if I had any questions. Mark made, what could have been a very stressful experience, very easy and straightforward for me. I will definitely be using his services again for future purchases. A++ service.

Mark is brilliant! This is the first time I have bought a house and with so much information and so many insurances to consider, Mark made the process seamless. His patience is second-to-none and he can't do enough for you. I would highly recommend Mark to anyone....Thanks Mark!
