First Time Buyer Mortgage

If you're looking to buy a home, you'll most likely need to apply for a mortgage. It's a loan which is secured against the value of the property.

Securing a mortgage for your first home can be a lengthy and confusing process with lots of decisions to make.

A mortgage is a loan secured against your home.

Your home may be repossessed if you do not keep up repayments on your mortgage or any other debt secured on it.




Check your finances

The size of your mortgage will be affected by your deposit – this is the amount you will be contributing to the house purchase. Usually, the larger the deposit, the better the mortgage deal you will be able to get which, in turn, will help to reduce your monthly repayments.




Agreement (or Decision) in Principle

A mortgage decision from a lender is also known as an Agreement in Principle (or AIP). We can apply for an Agreement in Principle from a suitable lender. This will confirm that the lender is willing to consider a mortgage application from you and the amount the lender is prepared to lend you.

Having an Agreement in Principle can help you get ahead of the competition when making an offer on a property as it demonstrates your mortgage application will be considered by a lender up to the stated amount. However, this does not guarantee a mortgage offer.

An Agreement in Principle gives you the opportunity to return to your full application later after you've had an offer accepted.
