Whether you’re purchasing your first home, upsizing to make space for a growing family or looking to remortgage, we’re on hand to make things simple, efficient and tailored to you.
If you’re considering whether a mortgage broker is right for you, Gail Reid, Director of Gail Reid Mortgage Services, shares the top 5 reasons around why working with one could make all the difference to your mortgage journey…
Expert guidance throughout your home-buying journey
“For many, navigating the mortgage journey can feel like a maze, especially if you’re new to the process. A mortgage broker can offer invaluable expertise and simplify the journey by identifying the right options tailored to your circumstances. From understanding the complexities of different lenders, to staying ahead of policy and rate changes, brokers ensure you’re always a step ahead in a fast-moving market.
“At Gail Reid Mortgage Services, our team brings together hundreds of years of combined mortgage experience. This depth of knowledge, paired with our innovative mortgage software, gives us access to thousands of mortgage products on the market, updates on lending policy and interest rate changes. Our strong relationships with lenders and their underwriters allows us to pinpoint mortgage solutions quickly, which is essential when time-sensitive decisions are needed.
“For first-time buyers overwhelmed by where to start, we can also break down the process into manageable steps and guide you through what to do and when to do it. Whether it’s securing peace of mind or meeting critical deadlines, the team at Gail Reid Mortgage Services is here to provide expert guidance every step of the way.”
Access to a wide range of mortgage options
“A mortgage broker opens up access to a far wider range of lenders and products than you’d typically find on the high street, which provides more opportunities to find a deal that fits your specific financial needs, rather than settling for limited or ‘one-size-fits-all’ options.
“We give our clients access to thousands of mortgage products, enabling them to secure the most competitive option in what has been a volatile market in recent years. By broadening the scope of our possibilities and staying ahead of the market, our team can ensure you always have the best chance of finding the right mortgage for you.”
Personalised solutions tailored to your circumstances
“Securing a mortgage is about more than just finding the best interest rate – it’s about finding the right solution for your unique goals and financial situation. A good mortgage broker takes the time to understand your priorities and works to match you with a lender and product that meets those needs.
“Gail Reid Mortgage Services takes pride in aiming to secure the most competitive option and finding a solution that aligns with your life and goals. Whether it’s ensuring you can borrow enough to secure your forever home, working with a lender that considers the latest year’s company accounts or dealing with past credit difficulties, we tailor our recommendations to fit your circumstances.”
Saving you time and effort
“Applying for a mortgage can be a time-consuming and often frustrating process for buyers, especially when you’re unsure where to start. From identifying the right lender and product to managing the application process; a mortgage broker can ensure the process runs smoothly and efficiently.
“When working alongside you throughout the mortgage process, the team at Gail Reid Mortgage Services will gather all the necessary documents required, submit the mortgage application and then liaise directly with the lender to secure your mortgage offer promptly. This eliminates the need to navigate call centres or chase updates yourself, freeing up time to focus on preparing for your new home!”
Flexible and continuous support
“We know that questions about your mortgage can come up at any time, not just during regular working hours. That’s why we provide flexible support seven days a week, offering advice and guidance over the phone, Teams or in person – whatever works best for you.
“We’re also committed to being able to assist for the life of the mortgage, and will check in before your current mortgage deal ends to help you avoid paying more than you need, finding the best options to suit your circumstances.
“With a focus on ongoing guidance throughout our clients’ mortgage journey, the Gail Reid Mortgage Services team ensures you are supported every step of the way, now and in the future.”
