In the past when you needed a mortgage to buy a new flat or house, you might have popped into your local bank for a chat.
These days, many people seek help from independent mortgage advisors instead.
There are hundreds of mortgages available. And some products you'll pass the affordability checks for, while others you may not. So how do you get started?
To help you navigate it all, a broker can be a beacon of light guiding you through the mortgage maze.
An independent broker will help you find the best mortgage for you by looking at all of the different deals available.
They'll look into the real costs of different mortgages, by working out how much you'll pay back over the term of the mortgage in interest, and all of the fees involved.
Bear in mind that many of the cheapest mortgage rates can come with the highest set-up fees, so it's not always easy to work out which deal is the cheapest.
Brokers will also look into the likelihood of your application being accepted. That prevents you wasting time and money with mortgage applications you're unlikely to succeed with.
A mortgage broker will take you through the whole mortgage process, which can be especially useful if you're a first-time buyer.
And they'll scour the market to find the best deal tailored to your personal circumstances.
They'll have access to exclusive deals, which may not be available on the high street.
And they're dab hands at finding solutions when you don't quite fit the mould of a standard buyer.
That could be if you're self-employed or have erratic earnings for example, or going through a divorce and need to buy a second home to live in.
A broker can also help if you're looking for interest-only deals or want to borrow into your retirement.
If affordability is a bit tight, a broker will know which mortgage lenders are more likely to approve your application.
They can also help you if you're buying a less conventional property, such as a flat over a shop or a home built using unusual materials.
In short, they're highly experienced at applying for mortgages on behalf of those with more complex situations.
