What Our Clients Say

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need a mortgage broker as a first-time buyer?2025-09-05T11:05:39+00:00

You don’t have to, but going direct limits your options. We compare over 90 lenders to find the best first-time buyer mortgage deals for you, saving you time, money, and stress.
Tip: Using a broker often unlocks exclusive deals not available on the high street.

How much can I borrow as a first-time buyer?2025-09-05T11:03:53+00:00

This depends on your income, deposit, and financial commitments. Use our free mortgage calculator for an estimate – then we’ll provide a personalised affordability check during your consultation.
Tip: Avoid making large new financial commitments (like loans or credit cards) before applying, as this can affect affordability.

What documents will I need for my mortgage application?2025-09-05T11:03:23+00:00

Typically, lenders require proof of ID, address, income (payslips or tax returns), and deposit source. We’ll give you a full checklist so nothing is missed.
Tip: Having your documents organised in advance speeds up your mortgage application.

Do first-time buyers pay Stamp Duty in Northern Ireland?2025-09-05T11:02:41+00:00

Most first-time buyers won’t pay Stamp Duty on homes under £425,000. For higher-value properties, reduced rates apply. We’ll guide you through what this means for your purchase.
Tip: Factor in legal fees, surveys, and moving costs alongside Stamp Duty when budgeting.

What government schemes are available for first-time buyers in Northern Ireland?2025-09-05T10:59:09+00:00

You may be eligible for schemes such as Co-Ownership (shared ownership) or other deposit support initiatives. We’ll explain how these work and if they’re right for you.
Tip: Government schemes can reduce the size of your deposit or monthly repayments, but not all lenders support them – we’ll help you navigate the options.

Can I get a mortgage with a low credit score or no credit history?2025-09-05T10:58:26+00:00

Yes – some lenders specialise in first-time buyer mortgages for applicants with little or imperfect credit history. We’ll match you with the right lender for your situation.
Tip: Check your credit report in advance and fix any errors before applying.

How much deposit do I need as a first-time buyer?2025-09-05T10:57:33+00:00

Most lenders require at least a 5% deposit, but having 10% or more can give you access to better mortgage rates. We’ll help you understand exactly how much you’ll need based on your circumstances.
Tip: Start saving early and check if you qualify for schemes like Lifetime ISA or Co-Ownership to boost your deposit.
