We can help you find the right Mortgage

John Whyte is a respected Independent Mortgage Broker in Brighton & Hove with 25+ years’ financial services experience and an in-depth knowledge and understanding of the mortgage market in all its complexities. As a specialist mortgage advisor operating across East Sussex and West Sussex, we provide a comprehensive service, researching the mortgage market on your behalf to source the most suitable product for your personal circumstances and financial objectives and find you the best deal.

Standard Residential Mortgages

Whether you are buying a new home in the Brighton & Hove area, looking to remortgage your existing property or raise capital for other projects, we can safely guide you through the maze of choice in the marketplace. When you move home, you can port your current mortgage to the new address or find a new, better deal. We can explain the pros and cons of each option and advise you on the most suitable path.

Remortgage Deals

Remortgaging a property means switching your existing mortgage to a new deal or lender, using the same property as security. You might be looking for a better deal at the end of a fixed term, additional finance to buy a second home, make home improvements or consolidate debt. Whatever the reason, we have a deep knowledge and experience of the market to give you the best professional mortgage advice.

Consumer Buy-To-Let Mortgages

Consumer Buy-To-Let Mortgages are intended to help private, non-professional or ‘accidental’ landlords to buy a property for letting to tenants in Brighton. These types of mortgages are regulated as residential mortgages and offer considerable consumer protection, but they do come with additional lending criteria and affordability calculations. For details, please make an enquiry here.

Commercial Buy-To-Let Mortgages

Commercial Buy-To-Let Mortgages are not regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority and are therefore a very different kettle of fish to the residential market. These types of mortgages are designed for professional landlords who operate their residential and/or commercial property portfolios as a business. If you need help with commercial property financing, please get in touch.

Second Charge Mortgages

A Second Charge Mortgage relies on the equity you have built up in your Brighton home to be used as a security for a second mortgage on the same property. This type of mortgage is sometimes used as an alternative to remortgaging. However, this is a highly complex field and we would strongly advise that you obtain our expert advice and look at all the pros and cons before you enter into any agreement.

Later Life Mortgages

If you are of retirement age and wish to take out a mortgage, there are now more choices available than ever before. In order to be accepted for a mortgage, you will need to pass affordability criteria, which means a good source of income (e.g. earned income, pensions or savings income) will be required. For more information on Later Life Mortgage, please contact us for expert advice.

Retirement Interest Only Mortgages (RIO)

With a standard interest-only mortgage, only the interest is being repaid every month for a fixed period. However, with a Retirement Interest Only Mortgage (RIO), there is no fixed term. Instead, the loan will be repaid when you come to sell the property, move into long-term care or pass away. If this or any other equity release schemes are of interest to you, please contact us for specialist advice for your property in Brighton & Hove.
