Not at all! While we're based in Newcastle and happy to meet in person, we help clients across the UK via phone, video call, and email. The choice is yours.

How much does mortgage advice cost in Newcastle?

Your initial consultation is free. If you go ahead with an application, a broker fee may apply depending on complexity — typically £199–£299 — and it is explained and agreed in writing before any chargeable work begins. Lenders may also pay us a procuration fee on completion.

Can you help with new-build mortgages in Newcastle?

Yes — we work with all major new-build developers in the North East and know which lenders offer suitable deals for new-build properties.

How quickly can I get a mortgage in Newcastle?

Most of our Newcastle clients receive a mortgage offer within 2-4 weeks. We handle all the paperwork to keep things moving as fast as possible.

Do you cover areas outside Newcastle?

Absolutely. We help clients across the entire North East — including Sunderland, Durham, Northumberland, and Teesside — as well as nationwide.

What's the average mortgage size in Newcastle?

With average sold prices around £192,000 and a typical 15% deposit, a working Newcastle mortgage is roughly £160,000–£170,000. Many first-time buyers borrow less than the UK average, keeping monthly payments manageable.

Are there lenders that understand North East pay structures?

Yes. Several lenders are flexible on overtime, shift allowances, and bank/agency NHS income — which matter for a lot of clients in Newcastle, Gateshead, and Sunderland. We pick lenders accordingly.

Can I get a buy-to-let mortgage near Newcastle University?

Absolutely. Sandyford, Spital Tongues, Heaton, and Jesmond are strong student-let postcodes. We work with BTL and HMO specialist lenders that understand the local rental market.
