Mortgage plans are wide and varied so this guide is designed to help answer those questions and more. Debt has the low down on what to look for before you make a mortgage application. You can also get some helpful advice on mortgage arrears and find out how a bridge loan could help you. Re-mortgages and second mortgages may sound similar but they are very different, we take a look at them both to clear up any confusion.

Perhaps you just need some clarification on mortgages before you hit the high street, whatever it is we are confident you’ll find the answer within our pages. One tip before we get started, always check your credit report before applying for a mortgage. Experian are the biggest credit reporting agency in the UK which means most lenders will contact them should you need credit. Get your FREE Experian credit report here.

Find out which mortgage lenders are offering the best mortgage deals by visiting our comparison tables for best buy mortgages. Also, check our debt Forum for a discussion on mortgages where you can also post your own message. If you need help finding a mortgage lender, try visiting mortgage our A-Z directory for a comprehensive list of all the major companies. Don’t forget to leave a rating if you have had any dealing with mortgage providers – other visitors value your opinion.
