    I have always thought that brokers are the best route to a good deal, - and for me, they always have in the past. However, my current experience is that I have found a better deal than 2 brokers. Sorry, don't wish to offend you, - it's just a fact. The deal that I have found is not available to brokers.

    If you think you can always go better, how come you haven't recommended a better deal to suisidevw in this thread?

    Best regards.

    For a broker to recommend a deal a fact find would need to be done. Recommending a product without knowing clients circumstances would be unfair on all concerned.

    Providing you meet the criteria - earnings to borrowing ratio, current expenditure blah blah, - what we're talking about on this thread is 5 year fixed deals at 75% LTV. No other detail.

    And in regards to this alone, "handytips", after his initial rants and boasts... has suddenly gone very quiet... :D

    Correct, I was after 5year 75% LTV mortgages, not rants on brokers or not! Alas! Maybe some incredible new offer will come through this week?!?

    They're doing a 4.14% for 75% LTV, £400 + £95 fees.
    Slightly better than the 4.19% from accord with similar fees I was previously looking at - the best part is Nationwide's SVR is a much more attractive 3.99 compared to 5.99. I know it's a long time until the SVR kicks in but I think it's a good indicator of the banks intentions with you as a borrower. As in are they going to rip you off at some point or not.

    haha! I specifically came on here today to post about this deal, - and it's one that I have just applied for.

    They are also offering 4.09 with no fee, - which, for me, worked out better than 3.89 with the £900 fee

    UPDATE!

    Didn't see this yesterday, maybe new today:

    5 year fix, 3.89%, £400 product fee!

    This looks like it's the best around at present over the full term?!
