One of the major advantages of today’s world is that we have choices in nearly everything we buy.

And considering that a mortgage is probably the biggest financial commitment we will ever make, then it’s the one decision that we should have some help with, to ensure that we get the best deal for our individual circumstances. That’s precisely why talking to an Independent Financial Adviser is a good move, according to Stuart Codling of Manchester-based mortgage broker The Mortgage Point.

“We’ve become so used to shopping around before making big purchase decisions, yet when it comes to the major issue of choosing a mortgage, so many people head straight for the bank or building society where they are already a customer,” says Stuart.

“But that’s like buying a car just because you like the colour,” he adds. “It’s a decision which ignores the most important reasons why we should choose one particular product over all the others.”

The Mortgage Point is an authorised Independent Financial Adviser (IFA), which means it can consider the whole of the mortgage market when suggesting the best mortgage deals available for every individual customer.

That means an adviser will take into account such fundamental considerations as the benefits provided, flexibility, and level of charges for every mortgage product available, before making a recommendation based on their knowledge of the market, and each client’s own needs. Meeting with an IFA is even more crucial for those who are looking for first time buyer mortgages as the individual candidate will most likely be on a budget.
