At Mortgage Required we don’t believe that submitting your mortgage application is the end of our job. If you have worked with us before you will know that you will be assigned your very own Case Handler to ensure your application goes through smoothly.
What you may or may not know however, is that every Friday our experts search the market for the latest rates from every lender. If they find a better rate, they will switch you before your mortgage is due for completion.
Thanks to our awesome team, we are pleased to announce that we have saved our clients over £2.2 million in 2023!
This service is not provided by your lender, and even better there is no additional charge for this – it’s all part of the Mortgage Required service.
Let us help to make your Fridays even better and get in touch today.
