What this broker covers
From the areas recorded here.
The Mortgage Store Cheltenham and records 7 of the 13 areas this directory tracks, working out of Gloucester: self-employed, later life / equity release, commercial, help to buy, buy-to-let, first-time buyers and residential. That is a broad listing.
Running commercial alongside buy-to-let usually points at landlord and business-owner clients — semi-commercial units, HMOs and portfolios rather than single flats.
Self-Employed
Self-employed cases turn on how a lender reads your income. Some average two or three years of accounts, some use your latest year, and sole traders, limited-company directors and day-rate contractors are all assessed differently. A firm that does this regularly knows which lenders sit where.
Read the self-employed guideLater 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 guideCommercial
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.
Read the help to buy 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. Alongside commercial lending, that points at semi-commercial units and HMOs rather than single flats.
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. Help to Buy is listed too, which matters if you are buying from someone still holding an equity loan.
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. Sitting next to later-life lending, it means the same firm can weigh a standard remortgage against a retirement product.
