What is the mortgage application process for a purchase?

Mortgages can be daunting, especially if you’re a first-time buyer. At Thameside Mortgages, however, from your first enquiry to getting the keys, we will be on hand to guide and support you every step of the way. Here’s what you can expect:

1.) Our mortgages brokers in Kent will start with an initial chat so we can gather some details. This will give us an idea of how much you can borrow, your maximum purchase price, the costs associated with the mortgage and your approximate monthly repayments.

2.) You’ll then receive an email detailing this information and setting out your next steps should you wish us to proceed to find an Agreement in Principle (AIP).

3.) Once you have an AIP, we will send you a full list of documentation we will need to complete the application. If you are purchasing a new property, you can now go and start house hunting, and we will check in with you every 1-2 weeks. 

4.) Once your offer has been accepted and we have the information required to submit an application, we will ensure the survey (valuation) of the property is arranged and send the required documents to the mortgage lender. Our job is to obtain a formal mortgage offer (approval) as quickly as possible.

5.) At this point, there are numerous areas we can help with. Firstly, we would look to ensure you have the right level of insurance to protect you, your family and your home. Things can get complicated and confusing during the legal process, so we will always be on hand to help you with each step and provide the solicitor with any documents in relation to your purchase. We’ll continue to liaise with you and the solicitors to ensure clear and smooth communication and regular updates right through to the point of completion. So you never feel left in the dark or overwhelmed and confused by jargon.

6.) Once completed, you can relax, feeling confident that you have the right mortgage and protection. 

We’ll now take care of you for as long as you have a mortgage and beyond. We will be in touch six months before your new deal is about to end and walk you through the process again.

What is the mortgage application process for a remortgage?

Interest rates have risen significantly since the turn of 2022, meaning thousands of people are coming to the end of low-interest rate mortgage deals. It’s incredibly difficult to know whether to gamble on rates reducing or take the security of a long-term fixed rate. 

When there are six months left on your current deal, it’s the perfect time to assess your options. Don’t worry. You won’t pay a penalty for coming out of your current deal early. You will just secure a deal ready for when the current mortgage product comes to an end.

At Thameside Mortgages, from your initial conversation to the completion of your remortgage, we will provide you with the pros and cons of the thousands of mortgage products out there, ensuring we choose a product that suits your needs and attitude to risk. Here’s what you can expect:

1.) We’ll start with an initial chat so we can gather some details. This will give us an idea of your existing mortgage details (balance/term/interest rate/when your deal ends). 

2.) We’ll guide you through the various mortgage options, such as fixed rate vs variable rates and short-term vs long-term deals.

3.) This will be the perfect time to decide whether you’re happy keeping all aspects of your mortgage the same, such as the loan amount and the mortgage term, or if you would like to consider raising extra finances at the same time to make home improvements or clear some debt.

4.) Invariably, we will compare the mortgages your existing lender can offer against the thousands of other products available to you.

5.) You’ll then receive an email detailing your options, setting out your next steps to secure the deal and a full list of the information we will need to complete your application. 

6.) Once we submit your application, we will send the required documents to the mortgage lender, and our team will work hard to obtain the formal mortgage offer/approval as quickly as possible.

7.) We will look to ensure you have the right level of insurance to protect you, your family and your home. We will liaise with you and the solicitors to ensure clear and smooth communication and regular updates right through to the point of completion. So you never feel left in the dark or overwhelmed and confused by jargon.

8.) Once your remortgage has completed, you can relax, feeling confident that you have the right mortgage and protection for your needs.

9.) We will take care of you for as long as you have a mortgage and beyond. We will be in touch six months before your new deal rate is about to end and walk you through the process again.

    I had heard great things about Thameside Mortgages before we used them to buy our new home, and they certainly did not disappoint! Andrew and his team were friendly, thorough and efficient from start to finish, which made what initially felt like a daunting process completely stress free. The team went above and beyond on multiple occasions, including to resolve a couple of unforeseen issues that we encountered with our mortgage application, proving that we couldn’t have done it without them! I will definitely be using them again for any future house purchase / remortgage.

    Michaela Peck Avatar Michaela Peck

    Andrew and Laura provided an exceptional service and my partner and I are extremely grateful for their services. They were both on hand to answer any questions or queries without hesitation and provided clear, concise and accurate information. As first time buyers and with one of us being self employed, it proved extremely difficult for us to get a mortgage (especially in a pandemic), however Laura and Andrew both went above and beyond to ensure we were looked after and for that we are extremely thankful.

  • Andrew, Laura and the Thameside team were fantastic and delivered a brilliant result for us. They were able to secure two competitive mortgages for our remortgage and new house purchase. These were secured in a matter of weeks and then Thameside guided us through a tricky exchange and completion process with minimal fuss and stress. Thank you Thameside for a providing a wonderful service and we’ll sure to be back again in the future!

    Absolutely the best, most helpful and speedy broker I've ever worked with - Thameside sorted everything including finding the right mortgage and insurances for me, guiding me through the applications and keeping me posted throughout the process. Particular thanks for their endless patience with me dithering over every decision, but because of their honest and clear advice, I'm completely comfortable I've made the right choices. I really couldn't recommend these guys enough!

    Ellie Blackall Avatar Ellie Blackall

    Andrew & Laura at Thameside Mortgages were an absolute godsend. Having them as our Mortgage Broker was so worth the money. They had excellent communication, were brilliant at chasing our lender and keeping things moving quickly, they were also fantastic at finding the best mortgage deal and helping you with every step of the way. They made the whole process so much easier, especially as we were first time buyers and had no clue what we were doing. They help you with all the paperwork and make the process far less overwhelming. I cannot recommend them enough, book them you will not regret it.

    This is the second time I've instructed Andrew Sheen at Thameside Mortgages to find and secure the right deal for me. On both occasions I've had complete confidence in his ability to work with my best interests at heart. So professional and personable, I hope to always work with him when moving house or remortgaging. Not to mention, he's also a really top bloke. Thank you Andrew and team. Let's do it all again in 5 years time.

  • After the purchase of our property we were in search of a good mortgage broker and our estate agent recommended Andrew. After speaking to Andrew we were confident we had found the right person to entrust finding us something as important as our first mortgage. We provided Andrew with all the necessary details and with his extensive experience and knowledge in this field, he was able to find us a very good mortgage deal. It was a pleasure working with Andrew and he was there to help and support us from the initial stages of the mortgage to the final completion day. When we needed to remortgage, Andrew helped us find another good deal, providing the same care and support as before. I would definitely recommend Andrew to anyone who is looking for an experienced and professional yet very approachable and friendly expert broker who will help guide them through the whole mortgage process. Thank you so much Andrew and Lydia for all your help recently.

  • Having used a number of mortgage advisors in the past, I can say that Thameside were a breath of fresh air. We have an unusual situation and were told we couldn’t get what we needed from other advisors. Thameside were able to arrange a mortgage and kept us updated constantly and were available any time to discuss all the usual issues. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a mortgage.

    Christian Willmore Avatar Christian Willmore

    From start to finish Thameside Mortgages have been available and very helpful in guiding us through not only moving house, but also remortgaging in these difficult times. I can’t tank Andrew, Laura and Lydia enough for their care and fantastic work ethic! Will definitely be using them in the future!!

    Chris Bassett Avatar Chris Bassett

    We've bought our first home with Thameside Mortgages and it was a wise decision to choose them over others. Andrew made sure that everything is done for us and helped us beyond our expectations. Both he and Laura are very responsive, professional and welling to help anytime is needed. Our journey was a long one, being a chain but they stood side by side with us the whole process even in this difficult time. If I should choose again I would definitely choose them again. I recommend them 100%. Well done Thameside Mortgages 👌

  • Great service from start to finish, made the whole process very smooth and easy

    Chris Lewis Avatar Chris Lewis

    Andrew & Laura were amazing at Thameside Mortgages. They were able to secure us a mortgage after we purchased the property, so only a few lenders were available to us. We were happy with the mortgage they recommended. The conveyancer wasn't the best, but Andrew & Laura pushed that side too. This is the second mortgage I've got through Thameside Mortgages and I will definitely use them again! Can't recommend them enough. Fantastic service, always available and happy to help. Thanks guys 🙂

    paul sharp Avatar paul sharp

    Andrew and Laura were attentive to all our needs and gave us all the facts to help us make informed decisions. They were more than happy to answer our many many questions and always did so in a very timely manner. We had some issues with our solicitors taking too long to action paperwork but both Andrew and Laura chased things up on our behalf. The support and guidance along the way was definitely appreciated. We shall definitely use Thameside Mortgages again!

  • I genuinely can't thank Andrew and Laura enough for all of their hard graft through a very stressful process! The sleepless nights have been totally worth it!! I couldn't have done this with out your superb guidance. Professional, caring, excellent communication, explations to a solo first time buyer that doesn't always understand the jargon that comes with process. I was told by several people I didn't earn enough, needed a partner, better paid job to get on the property ladder. Andrew took this as a challenge and found me an excellent mortgage deal, twice!! I am so, so happy that I chose them to make this a lot easier. I genuinely can't recommend Thameside Mortgages enough. Forever grateful!

    Thameside Mortgages, Jason Senior Financial Adviser is the most proactive Adviser I have had the pleasure of working with. He helped me not only with the purchase of my Property 5 years ago but also with my Remortgage couple days ago, very versatile with a lot of knowledge and huge experience a really great, amazing person. My e-mail was answered frequently within a minute, he was quick on the document chase. Friendly professional, service, I definitely recommend it. And very decently. Thank you so much Jason.
