Getting a Broker

Just out of interest, as I won't be looking for a new mortgage for a year or so, how do you go about getting a broker?
The two times I've needed a mortgage, I've just gone with Nationwide who I bank with.
If it makes any different, it will be a single application (single mum) who works part time and I have quite a bit of equity in my property at the moment as a deposit.
Also, how much do brokers cost?

Have you got friends or family who can recommend anyone?
Personally I use google when im looking for a tradesman and give them a call/see how I get on with them. If I were not a broker, I think I would just do the same for that.
Costs can vary from £0- 1000+. It usually depends on the amount of commission, complexity of the case and experience of the broker.I am a Mortgage AdviserYou should note that this site doesn't check my status as a mortgage adviser, so you need to take my word for it.
