What can we do to help finance your purchase?
We are authorised and regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority for credit brokering.
We work with a number of carefully selected credit providers who may be able to offer you finance for your purchase. We are only able to offer finance products from these providers. We do not charge a fee for our credit brokering services. We will typically receive commission from the lender we introduce you to, this will be either a fixed fee or a fixed percentage of the amount you borrow. We will advise you of the amount of commission payable to us, how this is derived, and gain your written consent before proceeding.
The lenders we work with may pay commission at different rates. However, the amount of commission that we receive from a lender does not have an effect on the amount that you pay to the lender under your credit agreement.
In the first instance we use soft credit search to ensure we place your application with the best lenders. If your credit score indicates that you may receive a better rate from a Prime Lender then we will contact our Prime lending panel on your behalf. Many prime lenders use a hard search – this is part of their established process and may result in more than one hard search being recorded on your credit profile. We will always offer the best rate/ payment possible based on your own personalised results.
Can we give you independent financial advice?
No, we are not independent financial advisers and are unable to give you independent financial advice.
