    its a few years since I was looking for a mortgage but I used
    London & Country

  • We have just had an awful experience with London and Country and absolutely do not recommend. I think they should be avoided at all costs.

    Why does the broker need to be in Northern Ireland? Many will work via post. I recommend GMS from this forum goldsmithmortgages.co.uk who is an extremely knowlegeable and thorough broker. I have also had good interactions and advice from ACG.

    There are plenty of posts on here from borrowers who have used the major national brokers.

    They will give you a view as to what to expect.

    I don't think the service I received from London & Country was that amazing. Two 10 minute calls, and we've got you an AIP with ING Direct. Did not really feel like I received a personal service. The person at the local mortgage broker (recommended by the developer) who got me my mortgage for my new build was really good!
