How does getting a mortgage work as a first time buyer?

If the world of mortgages is entirely new to you, knowing where to start can be a challenge. While saving up that deposit is commitment enough, the next step in the process is finding out exactly how much you can borrow – and if you’ll be able to get a deal in place to get the best offer on your chosen property. dsMortgages are experienced in supporting first time buyers through the first steps towards a property of their own, and that all starts with figuring out how much you can borrow.

As with any loan, a first time buyer mortgage requires a good look at your current finances to see whether the property you’ve fallen in love with is affordable for you. Realistically, mortgage providers and lenders are looking for the least risk possible. If you have a good credit rating, a great source of income and you meet all the affordability requirements, then the process is likely to go incredibly smoothly. But don’t forget about that deposit, as well as the fees included as part of the mortgage process.

Often, first time buyers need an extra helping hand to get the process underway for their first time mortgage. Our team at dsMortgages aims to provide that support as a professional mortgage broker, using our experience and expertise to set you up for success in the mortgage process. From deposits to fees, interest rates to affordability tests, we provide insight into it all, so no part of the mortgage process is a mystery – and to help you get the best first time buyers mortgage for your specific needs.

How do I get started with a mortgage as a first time buyer?

If you’ve got your deposit saved up and you’re ready to leap in, the first step is taking a look at the mortgages available to you. Whoever you pick will require an affordability assessment as well as an in-depth look at your income and outgoings, plus your credit history. It may sound like a lot, but preparing in advance with a mortgage advisor can ensure you’re on the right track to be approved for your first home by running through everything you need to know and do.

Once you’ve calculated what you can afford and are likely to be approved for, you can take a look at the best rates and monthly payments for your needs. At dsMortgages, we have access to deals from over 90 lenders, allowing you to find the most suitable option for your requirements. We then go through the whole process with you from start to finish, from liaising with solicitors and estate agents to managing your paperwork in-house. With our support, the keys to your new home can be in your hands in no time.

Do you need a mortgage broker as a first time buyer?
