    So busy she is searching boards for business!

    This board is not meant to be used for people to find business!

    Ask yourself why she is sending you a PRIVATE message rather than posting her ideas on a thread for all to see!

    Important questions to ask Is she a whole of market independent mortgage broker? Does she charge a fee?

    If you like what she says, I would suggest putting her advice on here to see if mortgage brokers think her advice is sound.

    I warn my children to beware of people they meet online, remember she has approached you rather than vice versa.

    Sorry have I got some-one into trouble ,I did not realise,perhaps I should think before I write.I am sure that she was trying to help and it is always good when some-one is starting off,she won't charge any more than any-one else ,because you gets her money from the mortgage company.But if I want she can do it with me paying a %.

    To see if she is being honest with you, and if she is a friend of ours, then you should tell us her name.

    IF she is some one we know then we will tell you - if we do not know them, how can you trust the advice they give you
