Today, 3.27 pm Mortgage Metrics is good in my opinion. It doesn't cost a lot and the system is very simple to use. In a market where rates are dropping it means you always stay on top of latest rates for cases

Today, 3.14 pm Get well soon my friend
Today, 3.04 pm If it helps to put things in to perspective I have not written any business for around six weeks after a five hour cancer operation.Still off recovering and told by my GP today it could take another 3 months to recover.
Today, 1.54 pm For 20 years under 2 names they have been 'eating our lunch' whenever possible. From 'have to transact direct' to ERC concessions early to secure a new rate. They are shameless.
Today, 1.47 pm they have always been 4 applicants direct but not sure why you would even suggest using them before checking you can do the deal.  Be like telling people about all the amazing rates that you dont have access to.   Barclays, Skipton, even Halifax will take more than 2 apps so recommen...
Today, 1.37 pm I know there is a 15 day grace period. I have been told I should apply for the extension 15 days before the offer expires to allow time to be processed, so looking at tomorrow ideally. Solicitors not playing ball with the COT. Just stuck really
Today, 1.08 pm Remember there is an automatic 14 day extension on all Nationwide offers with no requirement to send in the Cot ahead of time 
Today, 1.05 pm I stepped away from making recommendations due to the backlash on some cases. But might start quoting on these.  The huge benefit from these types of updates, if they are going to us and the Estate Agents, then the number of inbound chaser calls should drop through the floor, and they can get ...

Inflation has increased in re...
Today, 1.19 pm Following today's Base Rate announcement by the Bank of England, Charles Resnick, Chief Finance Officer at Afin Bank, commented: “The Bank of England has held the Base Rate at 3.75% and the possibility of cuts to the interest rate has been pushed further out. The near-term outlook remains unc...
Today, 1.16 pm Barclays has introduced a new offset mortgage at 0.15% lower than its standard offset product, available exclusively to Premier customers. Depending on how much a customer can offset over the course of their mortgage, they could save thousands of pounds in interest payments. New product details 4....
Today, 1.14 pm Respected property brands LGSS and TPFG have announced a transaction that will deliver a close working relationship between the two organisations.

Today, 1.05 pm Alex Beavis, Interim Director of Retail Banking, LHV Bank comments: “The Bank of England is kicking the can down the road, but households can’t afford to do the same. This base rate hold was expected by the markets, despite the backdrop of the continued uncertainty in the Middle East an...
Today, 1.04 pm Martin Sims, Distribution Director at Molo Finance, commented: “The decision to hold rates feels in line with what most in the market were expecting. Recent inflation data has moved higher again, but not in a way that gives the Bank a clear direction, and with wider economic pressures still i...
Today, 1.03 pm Frances Haque, Chief Economist at Santander UK comments: "Given the ongoing uncertainty of the conflict in the middle east and its impact on the economy, it made complete sense that the MPC decided to hold rates today. From the data released last week, we can see the conflict is beginning to have a...
Today, 1.02 pm Richard Pike, chief sales and marketing officer at Phoebus Software, commented: “A base rate hold was largely expected and already priced in by the mortgage markets, but it remains to be seen where rates will go next. We’ve seen some lenders reducing rates in the past couple of weeks, b...
Today, 1.01 pm John Phillips, CEO of Just Mortgages and Spicerhaart, said: “The decision to hold rates today will come as a relief to many, particularly given the shadow of uncertainty that continues to hang over markets following recent geopolitical tensions. There had been concern that rising pressure on ...
