What this broker covers

From the areas recorded here.

Hillswood Wealth Management and Mortgage Advice records 4 areas of advice from its base in Stoke-on-Trent: later life / equity release, buy-to-let, first-time buyers and residential.

Advising on both mainstream residential and later-life lending means the firm can compare a retirement interest-only mortgage against equity release rather than defaulting to one of them.

Later Life / Equity Release

Later-life lending and equity release are separately regulated and have long-term consequences: interest can roll up against the value of your home, and it changes what is left in your estate. Advisers need a specific qualification to recommend it.

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.

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.

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. Sitting next to later-life lending, it means the same firm can weigh a standard remortgage against a retirement product.
