Trusted Mortgage Advice | Neil Soundy Financial Services – WHY USE NEIL SOUNDY AS YOUR CARDIFF MORTGAGE BROKER?

The widest choice of lenders and mortgages.

The world of mortgages and mortgage advice has changed because of the credit crunch.

What has changed?

Some lenders have stopped paying commission or now charge a higher interest rate for a mortgage that pays commission.

The vast majority of mortgage brokers still restrict their advice to mortgages that pay them commission.

What makes us different?

We give advice on commission and non-commission paying mortgages.

You benefit from

At least twice the choice of mortgages to a standard broker.

Reduced deposit

Better rates

Lower arrangement fees

Trusted advice

Go to our testimonial page for client reviews.

You are protected.

It is important to understand is that because we offer advice we have a duty of care to you.

We have to recommend a suitable mortgage and be able to justify why the particular mortgage we have recommended is right for your circumstances

If our advice is not up to scratch you can complain and be compensated.

In contrast, if you go directly to a high street mortgage lender, the majority will give you a choice of mortgage products but will not give advice. You will then have to guess which is the best on for you. As you have chosen the mortgage product you have lost your right to complain and, you only yourself to blame.

We are qualified

There’s lot more to choosing the right mortgage. It’s not as simple as just the cheapest fixed or tracker rate mortgage you can find. Has anyone explained the benefit of offset mortgages?

We are on your side

As expert mortgage advisers, are role is to act for you, not the estate agent, not the builder and not the vendor.

We know the industry

Mortgage criteria has become tighter over the past few years.

As a mortgage broker we deal with lenders on a day-to-day basis. We know the background criteria for the mortgage market and can process your application without unnecessary delays.

It’s not just about the mortgage

As mortgage broker we don’t just advise you about your mortgage. They will also look at any related protection to cover your mortgage. We are not tied to a single provider. For example Yorkshire Building Society will only offer you Legal & General.

We will recommend insurance based on your new mortgage arrangements to make sure you are fully protected in the event of:

  • Death
  • Critical illness (such as cancer, heart attack or stroke)
  • Redundancy

The value of advice

Mortgages are a lot more difficult than they first appear. Knowing what rate, what term, what lender, what features, what insurance are all time-consuming and complex matters.

Trusted Mortgage Advice | Neil Soundy Financial Services – HSBC / FIRST TIME BUYER MORTGAGE / 7 YEAR FIXED RATE MORTGAGE / GOOD

Today, HSBC have launched a 7 year fixed rate mortgage at 4.89%. The length of the fixed rate is its virtue and also its vice. You are buying an extended guarantee but giving up on flexibility, as your circumstances will almost certainly change. I understand that the mortgage is portable but the length of the fix could be longer than most first times buyer’s relationships. As normal there is a redemption penalty to break the contract with in the first 7 years.

Trusted Mortgage Advice | Neil Soundy Financial Services – SANTANDER INCREASES STANDARD VARIABLE RATE – REMORTGAGE NOW?

Hundreds of thousands of Santander mortgage customers will be hit with a hefty rate hike – and the threat of much worse to come.

The Spanish-owned bank announced it would increase its standard variable rate (SVR) from 4.24% to 4.74% on October 3.

Someone with a £150,000 mortgage would see their payments rocket by £516 over the next year.

Santander is also changing its rules to allow it to increase its SVR even more.

The firm will whack up its “SVR cap margin” – the maximum amount above the Bank of England’s base rate it can charge – from 3.75% to 4.99% from September 24.

It will mean Santander has the power to increase its SVR to 5.49%. If it does, someone with a £150,000 ­mortgage could see their monthly payment leap by £110 a month.

There is now a fear other banks will follow suit. A wave of lenders, including Halifax, Clydesdale and Yorkshire Banks, and the Co-operative, increased their SVR earlier this year.
