Another thing I've not seen discussed and forgive me if this has been covered is muslim mortgages. As a newly qualified advisor any industry experience with these would be interesting as I have never come across one, and they are barely covered in Cemap.

Been a while- actually been manic, i think my phones got switched back on about a week ago!
Thought about you yesterday when a picture framing client phoned me to discuss the concept of getting a shop, but wasn't too keen on the idea of being committed to getting out of bed in the morning!
Presume you are as busy as always??I am a fee charging WoM Mortgage broker.I now no longer give information and opinion within the Mortgage boards, because a number of posters who, having approached me professionally, agreed my fee-which has been been made very clear at the outset, taken my advice (normally cancelling a [home visit] meeting at short notice) have then approached one of the fee-free brokers on here to arrange the very same deal I have advised.Whilst I totally concur with the ethos of "money saving"- abusing the goodwill of a professional who provides a quality service is taking it too far! :mad:0 -
Absolutely been crazy this last few weeks,
It has settled a bit now into a more sensible level, but still booked every evening for the next week and a half. Spend all day doing suitability letters at the moment
Just about to launch a new company doing commercial mortgages. Hopefully will go live at the beginning of March so may be looking to recruit an admin asst.
Have decided against a High Street 'retail' unit and have set my mind on a lovely little 2 room suite in an old converted farmyard, in a small business park with the likes of an accountant, surveyor and an architect. They are lovely little units in a smashing rural setting in a newly landscaped ex farmyard. Excellent rental terms too.
Having an afternoon R & R today playing Tiger Woods 2006 on the PS2, damn I love that game
Must catch up with each other next week somewhen.

Thats a shame, - by the sounds of things., I guess you have researched this already.
If not I have some contact numbers/ email or websites for dealing direct with those lenders, but whether they actually come up with the goods, sorry I don't know. - let me know if you want what I've gotAny posts on here are for information and discussion purposes only and shouldn't be seen as (financial) advice.0
