The wider assessment

The aim is to identify the questions and evidence that matter before making a commitment. A short outline is enough to begin; detailed records can follow through an agreed secure route.

Build the first-home plan around your actual status

We establish nationality, current residence, visa or settled status, time in the UK and how your income is paid. Then we add the property budget, buying costs and deposit trail. The result is a practical route to an agreement in principle or a clear list of what needs strengthening first.

An agreement in principle is not a mortgage offer, and lender criteria can change. Budget separately for legal work, surveys, tax and moving costs.
