Need help with sorting mortgage

We have found a house to buy but don't understand what mortgage to be looking for.
We are first time buyers but the house we want to buy is split into flats we will live in the top floor flat and the other two floors we will be renting off.
what type of mortgage would this be first time buyer/ buy to let?

Who should I be making an appointment with bank/ Mortgage advisor / mortgage broker
will it cost me for their help/advice

Thanks

    With your short description it looks like you want a commercial finance broker to me.

    Whether it costs or not is down to the fee structure of whoever sorts it out for you, they should tell you up front how much they charge.
