    I work for a firm of solicitors and just recently we have been receiving a few mortgage offers for people in your position. The lenders are : Kensington, Edeus and Mortgages Plc. Try going direct to save proc fees (brokers fee which are added to your loan) but if you do need to use a broker, then explain to them the reason why - they are all really helpful.

    some of these lenders will not accept business direct from consumers.

    get yourself to a whole of market fee free broker so you can explore all your options.

    You are wrong on Proc fees (or procuration fees). They are paid to brokers when any introduced business completes. The fees are NOT added to anyone's loan and are paid by the lender directly. Whether the client uses a broker or goes direct to the lender does not make the slightest difference.

    You may be confusing this with a broker fee. Some charge extra and some do not. This fee can be added to the loan or paid upfront.

    As homer points out, many of these lenders WILL NOT deal with the public directly as many of them prefer this sort of client to take some advice before commiting.

    Hope this helps.
