What this broker covers

From the areas recorded here.

Brookmans Mortgage Consultants records 6 areas of advice from its base in Bristol: bad / adverse credit, commercial, help to buy, buy-to-let, first-time buyers and residential.

Pairing first-time-buyer work with adverse credit is worth noting: a thin or damaged credit file is the single most common reason a first purchase falls over, and it needs a lender chosen for that rather than for its rate.

Bad / Adverse Credit

Adverse credit work means the firm places cases that high-street lenders decline — defaults, missed payments, CCJs, IVAs and discharged bankruptcies. Lenders in this space price by how recent and how severe the event was, so the date on your credit file matters more than the amount.

Commercial

Commercial mortgages are underwritten case by case rather than from a rate table. Lenders look at the trading business behind the purchase, the property type and your experience, and terms are negotiated rather than advertised.

Help to Buy

Help to Buy cases now mostly mean people who already hold an equity loan and need to remortgage, staircase out of it, or sell. The equity loan has to be repaid at the property's current value, not what you borrowed.

Buy-to-Let

Buy-to-let borrowing is capped by a rental stress test rather than by your salary, and the sums differ sharply between personal ownership and a limited company. Portfolio landlords with four or more mortgaged properties face extra underwriting. Alongside commercial lending, that points at semi-commercial units and HMOs rather than single flats.

First-Time Buyers

First-time-buyer work means walking someone through it from scratch: what deposit is realistic, what an agreement in principle is worth to an estate agent, which schemes still exist and what lenders will ask to see. Help to Buy is listed too, which matters if you are buying from someone still holding an equity loan.

Residential

Standard residential advice covers buying, moving and remortgaging on your own home — the bulk of UK mortgage lending, and the area where switching deal at the right moment usually saves the most. Here that runs alongside adverse-credit work, so it covers people a high-street lender has already turned down.

Fees: what this means for you

Fee-free to you

Fee-free means the lender pays this firm a procuration fee on completion, so the advice costs you nothing directly. You still pay any lender product fee, valuation and legal costs. Commercial cases are frequently priced separately from residential ones, so confirm which applies to you.

Questions to ask Brookmans Mortgage Consultants

Tailored to this listing.

  1. 1How many lenders can you recommend from — the whole market, a limited panel, or a single lender?
  2. 2You are listed as fee-free — does that hold for a case like mine, and what will the lender be paying you?
  3. 3Given what is on my credit file and when it happened, which lenders would consider me, and roughly how much more will that cost than a high-street rate?
  4. 4What deposit, trading history and security will a commercial lender want from me, and how long does a decision usually take?
  5. 5What are my options for the equity loan — repay it, remortgage around it, or leave it in place — and what does each cost?
  6. 6How does the rental stress test change what I can borrow, and would buying through a limited company work out better for me after tax?
  7. 7Do you see clients at your Bristol office, or is this handled by phone and video?

Frequently asked questions

What does Brookmans Mortgage Consultants charge for mortgage advice?

Brookmans Mortgage Consultants is listed on MortgageMatch as fee-free, meaning the broker is paid commission by the lender rather than charging you for advice. You would still pay any lender product fee, valuation and legal costs. Commercial cases are frequently priced separately from residential ones, so confirm which applies to you.

What types of mortgage does Brookmans Mortgage Consultants handle?

Brookmans Mortgage Consultants records bad / adverse credit, commercial, help to buy, buy-to-let, first-time buyers and residential, working from Bristol. Ask anyway if your case sits outside that list.

Can Brookmans Mortgage Consultants help if I have bad credit?

Brookmans Mortgage Consultants lists adverse credit as an area it covers, which means it places cases involving defaults, missed payments, CCJs or an IVA. Bring the dates and amounts from your credit file to the first conversation — specialist lenders price on how recent the event was, so an adviser cannot give you a realistic answer without them.

Does Brookmans Mortgage Consultants only cover Bristol?

Brookmans Mortgage Consultants is listed in Bristol, but UK brokers are not restricted to their own area and most advise nationally by phone or video. You can also compare other mortgage brokers in Bristol on MortgageMatch.

MortgageMatch is a directory, not a broker. We do not give advice. Your home may be repossessed if you do not keep up repayments.
