Home Mover

Moving home is an exciting new chapter, whether you're upsizing, downsizing, relocating, or simply looking for a fresh start. Our expert mortgage advisers will take the time to understand your situation and guide you through your options.

Where Do I Start?

Before you start viewing new homes, understand your current home's value, work out how much equity you have, and assess affordability and costs — from deposits and mortgage payments to legal fees and moving costs. Once you have a solid plan, the next step is obtaining an Agreement in Principle.

How Long Does Moving Home Take?

On average, the process takes 12–16 weeks from accepting an offer on your current home to completing the purchase of your new one. This allows time for mortgage application and approval, legal and conveyancing work, and surveys and property checks. Timelines can vary, especially if there's a property chain involved.

Can I Move My Current Mortgage?

With some lenders, this is possible. This is called porting your mortgage, and it allows you to transfer your existing mortgage deal to your new home, potentially avoiding early repayment charges. However, a new mortgage assessment is required, not all mortgages are portable, and affordability can impact approval.

Two paths, one destination. Do either of these sound like you?

Running the Business, But Drowning in the Admin?

You're a one-man band doing it all — clients, compliance, case management, marketing. You're too busy working in the business to grow it. Full back-office support, a dedicated business coach, and a CRM built for brokers means you focus on clients and earning, not paperwork.

Earning £50k? You Could Be Earning £150k.

You're an employed mortgage adviser, good at what you do, building someone else's business. The ceiling on your income isn't your ability — it's your split. Up to 85% commission retention, 90+ lenders, and full support means the same cases, the same skills, double or triple the take-home.
