#1 Top Tip
Never apply for credit when you're likely to be rejected
It comes as a huge shock to some when they find out that, to add insult to injury, a failed application for credit not only means that they won't receive the credit but also means their credit score will take a hit.
You owe it yourself to find out your credit worthiness in the eyes of all 3 reference agencies and then only apply for credit if your score is sufficiently high.
#2 Top Tip
First time buyer mortgage
First time buyer mortgages are those which are constructed to appeal particularly to those buying homes for the first time. Some lenders provide incentives such as cashback – a cash lump sum when you've just moved in is perhaps more likely to be attractive to a first time buyer who might have less property etc. than a home mover who has much of the fixtures and fittings to put in place in their new home already bought over the years.
Fixed term mortgages are another example of a device which can be very marketable towards first time buyers. They take these out to have the security of knowing exactly how much they'll need each month to make their repayments. They have to remember to organise a new fixed term when the initial one expires to avoid going on a lender's standard variable rate, but the incentive of saving cash through organising this, perhaps by selecting a new mortgage provider, is arguably likely to appeal as well.
Selling? Consider ordering your own local authority search
- One of the conditions that a lender imposes on a buyer buying a property with a mortgage is that the buyer must purchase a local authority search. Additionally, cash buyers often buy this search, for their own peace of mind.
- The local authority search takes the longest to be returned; anything from 1 week/10 days to 6 weeks and beyond sometimes.
- A seller can, therefore, pre-empt this by buying their own local authority search, which they can then sell to a prospective buyer.
- They also benefit by being notified of any planning orders, etc.

Frequently Asked Questions: Mortgage Brokers Lincoln
The role of a mortgage broker is to take your information and compare multiple deals from different lenders, based on your specific details, to find you the best option.
The benefit of using a mortgage broker is having one expert doing the research and comparison for you, rather than dealing with multiple lenders who all want to sell you their own products. Our independent Lincoln mortgage brokers have access to better deals than the general public and can negotiate on your behalf.

Our independent Lincoln mortgage brokers have access to better deals than the general public and can negotiate on your behalf.
Unless you have already found a mortgage product and aren't really interested in finding a better deal, it is always worth using a mortgage broker, and when your initial consultation is free with SAM Conveyancing, what have you got to lose?
Some homeowners want the convenience of borrowing with the same lender that they currently bank with. Even then, it is often worth going through a broker anyway, as they may be able to get you an exclusive offer from that very same bank that you won't have access to.
Most mortgage brokers make their money in a flat fee or a commission, which is paid to them by the lender. Some brokers charge a fee to the borrower which is normally payable as a flat fee, or it can be financed with the mortgage.
You'll need a mortgage approval in principle in order to budget, so you should get a mortgage broker before you start looking for houses and certainly before you make an offer on one. In fact, some people speak to a mortgage broker as soon as they decide to get serious about buying a home.
There's no need to meet a mortgage broker face to face. Our hand-selected mortgage experts offer convenient remote meetings by phone, for award-winning, national coverage.
A mortgage broker will be quicker purely based on their greater experience. They will be able to check your application to make sure it's not rejected for commonplace mistakes and they can steer you away from wasting your time applying for mortgage products or to lenders who are likely to turn you down.
