What this broker covers
From the areas recorded here.
Engage Mortgage Brokers works across buy-to-let, first-time buyers and residential from Cardiff — a focused listing led by buy-to-let work.
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. The firm covers first purchases too, so first-time landlords should not be turned away for having no rental history.
Read the buy-to-let guideFirst-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.
Read the first-time buyers guideResidential
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. This firm keeps landlord lending separate, so be clear which of the two you need when you call.

Frequently asked questions
What does Engage Mortgage Brokers charge for mortgage advice?

What types of mortgage does Engage Mortgage Brokers handle?

Does Engage Mortgage Brokers arrange buy-to-let mortgages?
Yes — buy-to-let is one of the areas Engage Mortgage Brokers lists. How much you can borrow is set mainly by the rent the property will achieve against a lender's stress rate, not by your income. Ask about limited-company lending too, since the tax treatment differs and the rates usually do as well.
Does Engage Mortgage Brokers only cover Cardiff?
Engage Mortgage Brokers is listed in Cardiff, 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 Cardiff 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.
