Common questions
Are all listed brokers FCA authorised?
We only list brokers registered on the FCA Financial Services Register. You can verify any listing directly on the FCA site.
Is a mortgage broker the same as a mortgage adviser?
Yes. In the UK the terms are interchangeable. Some people search for a mortgage advisor (with an o) and others say mortgage adviser (with an e). Both are qualified professionals who help you find and apply for the right mortgage.
Is MortgageMatch free to use?
Yes. Browsing the directory and contacting brokers is completely free for consumers.
What is a mortgage broker or adviser and do I need one?
A mortgage broker or adviser is a qualified professional who compares mortgages across multiple lenders on your behalf. You do not need one to get a mortgage, but a good one can save you time, widen your options and often secure a better deal, especially if your situation is not straightforward.
How much does a mortgage broker or adviser cost?
Some brokers and advisers are fee-free and paid by the lender when your mortgage completes. Others charge a flat fee or a percentage of the loan, typically between £300 and £750. Every listing shows the fee structure so you can compare like for like.
What is the difference between whole-of-market and tied brokers?
A whole-of-market broker or adviser can recommend products from most lenders. A tied or panel broker only works with a limited list. Whole-of-market usually gives you the widest choice, but a tied broker with strong lender relationships can still be a good fit for specific cases.
Can a broker help if I have bad credit or I am self-employed?
Yes. Specialist brokers work regularly with adverse credit, contractors, self-employed applicants and complex income. Use the specialism filter to find brokers who handle your situation.
How long does it take to get a mortgage in the UK?
From Agreement in Principle to completion typically takes eight to sixteen weeks. New builds, complex chains or unusual properties can take longer. A broker can flag likely bottlenecks before you apply.
How do you make money?
We charge brokers a modest fee to manage and enhance their listings. We never sell your details or auction your enquiry to lenders.
Can I leave a review without signing up?
Yes. Head to any broker profile and post a review directly. We moderate for spam but never edit genuine feedback.
