    We do with SWB all day everyday.

    You are better off dealing with them through a professionals specialist broker as there are a number of angles on each case where background knowledge is key.

  • How would we go about finding a professionals specialist broker? I've seen a website called http://www.doctorsifa.co.uk/ is that the type of thing?

    Incidentally, given the information provided; I would fancy a better product than that available through SW - although the Offset is a decent feature potentially...

    Recommendations is the best source of a decent mortgage broker.

    All the best

  • Thank you, we will try to find a good broker. We have already been declined by First Direct (my bank) due to OH's employment status, so want to be careful when we make the next application.

    I genuinely believe a decent broker will find this a sensible home.

    You will not get First Direct rates mind you..

    Good luck
