What this broker covers
From the areas recorded here.
Paisley Mortgage Centre records 4 areas of advice from its base in Glasgow: 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.
Read the later life / equity release guideBuy-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.

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.

Charges a broker fee
You pay this firm for its advice on top of the lender's product fee, valuation and legal costs. Ask for the amount, the point at which it becomes payable and whether it is refundable if the case falls through — firms must disclose this before you commit. Buy-to-let and limited-company cases are often charged differently from residential ones — ask which bracket you fall into.

Frequently asked questions
Does Paisley Mortgage Centre charge a fee for mortgage advice?
Yes. Paisley Mortgage Centre is listed as fee-charging, so you pay the firm for its advice in addition to lender and legal costs. Ask for the exact amount, when it becomes payable and whether you get it back if the application does not complete. Buy-to-let and limited-company cases are often charged differently from residential ones — ask which bracket you fall into.
What types of mortgage does Paisley Mortgage Centre handle?
Paisley Mortgage Centre records later life / equity release, buy-to-let, first-time buyers and residential, working from Glasgow. Ask anyway if your case sits outside that list.
Does Paisley Mortgage Centre advise on equity release and later-life lending?
Paisley Mortgage Centre lists later life and equity release among its areas. This is separately regulated advice and an adviser needs a specific qualification to give it, so ask which one they hold. Ask too about the alternatives — a retirement interest-only mortgage or downsizing may cost your estate far less than a lifetime mortgage.
Does Paisley Mortgage Centre only cover Glasgow?
Paisley Mortgage Centre is listed in Glasgow, 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 Glasgow 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.
