The Full Journey

From referral to mortgage offer

Here's exactly what happens after Molly refers you to a Mortgage321 adviser.

1

Initial Consultation (Free)

Your adviser discusses your needs, explains the process, and answers your questions. No obligation to proceed.

2

Fact Find Completion

Your adviser completes a detailed fact find covering income, expenses, credit history, and mortgage requirements. This forms the basis of your advice.

3

Research & Recommendation

Your adviser researches the whole market and presents a personalised mortgage recommendation with a Key Facts Illustration document.

4

Application Submission

Once you approve the recommendation, your adviser submits the full application to the lender and handles all paperwork.

5

The lender's underwriter assesses your application. A property valuation is arranged if required. Your adviser manages any queries.

Mortgage Offer

Once approved, you receive your formal mortgage offer. Your adviser explains the terms and coordinates with your solicitor to completion.

Regulated Service: Steps 2–6 constitute regulated mortgage advice and are only provided by qualified Mortgage321 advisers, not by Molly.
