A mortgage broker helps you find and arrange the right mortgage for your situation. At Victoria Park Mortgages, we compare deals from across the market, recommend suitable options, and manage the process from start to finish.

Yes. We are independent, whole-of-market mortgage brokers. This means we are not tied to any one lender and can search a wide range of mortgage products.

Banks only offer their own mortgages. A mortgage broker compares multiple lenders, including exclusive deals not available directly, helping you find a more suitable mortgage and saving you time.

No. We offer completely fee-free mortgage advice. You do not pay us for our service.

We are paid by the lender once your mortgage completes. This does not impact the deal or service you receive.

No. Our service is free. However, some mortgage lenders may charge product fees, arrangement fees, or valuation fees. These are set by the lender and not by us. We will always explain any costs clearly before you proceed.

Yes. We specialise in helping first-time buyers understand how much they can borrow, what deposit is needed, and how to secure their first mortgage.

Most lenders require at least 5 percent of the property value, although a larger deposit can improve your mortgage options and interest rates.

This depends on your income, expenses, and credit profile. We provide a personalised mortgage affordability assessment to give you a clear budget.

Remortgaging means switching your existing mortgage to a new deal, either with your current lender or a new one, often to get a better interest rate or release equity.

Many people remortgage when their current deal is ending. We recommend reviewing your options around six months before your deal expires.

Yes. We can help you arrange a new mortgage or transfer your existing deal when you move house.

Yes. We help landlords find suitable buy-to-let mortgages, whether you are purchasing your first investment property or growing a portfolio.

The typical mortgage process includes:

• Reviewing your finances and affordability

• Getting a mortgage agreement in principle

We manage the process and keep you updated at every stage.

Most mortgage applications take between two and six weeks, depending on the lender and your circumstances.

Yes - that’s our specialty. We deal with the paperwork, and lenders, to make the process as smooth as possible.

A decision in principle involves a soft credit check, a full mortgage application involves a hard credit check, but we guide you carefully to avoid unnecessary checks.
