Frequently Asked Questions

How much deposit do I need?

Minimum deposit criteria will vary lender to lender, but generally speaking you will need a minimum of 5% of the property price to use as a deposit. The more deposit you have though, the better rate you will be able to secure. 

I have a blip on my credit file, will it effect my borrowing capability?

Missed mortgage payments or adverse cried will have a knock-on effect on which lenders will work with you and the amounts they will loan. A mortgage for a person with adverse credit will usually be at a higher interest rate. Your Mortgage Evolution broker can talk you through the options available. 

What fees are involved in getting a mortgage?

There are nuermous fees that could be applicable when taking out a new mortgage. These could include property valuation fees, solicitor fees, stamp duty land tax fees and lender arrangement fees. Some fees are payable on application and some when your mortgage completes. You will be provided with a full illustration for any mortgage, including a breakdown of any fees.
