Moving Home

Moving Home

Moving home can be stressful and there are a lot of things to consider. How much will you sell your home for? Will you repay your mortgage or keep it and move it to another property? What if your home sells before you find your next home? Or what if you find your next home before your property sells?


Don't worry, that's what we're here for! Our home movers information service is completely free and it will provide you with all the information you need to make you feel more relaxed about the process and get the ball rolling!


The first step to moving is to speak to somebody to find out how everything works. In our free information service we will do a cost of moving analysis which will help you work out how much it could cost you to move and how much you would have left for your deposit on your next property. We will consider estate agent fees, solicitor fees, stamp duty and so on. We will also take a look at some of the current deals available on the market now and work out how much you could borrow.

What do I need to get started?

Nothing. Just a phone to use to give us a call! When you apply for a mortgage, you will usually be required to provide documents such as payslips, but the documents you will need to provide will depend on your situation. For example, if you're self-employed, you may not have payslips. That's why we don't ask for any documents or specifics to book the free information call. During the call we will talk about your personal circumstances and tailor our advice to you. From there, we will explain the next steps, such as providing documents and getting a decision in principle.


But just to give you an idea, here are the basic steps to moving home...





Step 1


Give us a call to book in your free information call. We will have a quick chat and find a time that suits you. Weekends and evenings are available.




Step 2

We will conduct a phone-call and/or screen share meeting where we will explain the moving process. We will gather your information from you to get an idea of how much you could borrow and the costs of moving. We will also take a look at some mortgage deals! (Up to 90 mins)




Step 3


We will ask you to provide us with some documents. For example, payslips to confirm your income.



Step 4


We will get a decision in principle from a suitable lender which will give you a clear indication of how much you could borrow for your next property.




Step 5

Now that you know how much you could borrow, it's time to find a buyer for your property and find a new home. We are also able to assist with making offers for properties on your behalf.




Step 6

Time to get things moving! We will apply for your mortgage and send all necessary documents to the lender. We can also help you arrange a solicitor to take care of the legal side of purchasing.




Step 7

The lender will check the application and also do a valuation on the new property to ensure it is worth as much as you are paying for it. We can also help you upgrade to a survey if you would like to have your own checks carried out on the property.




Step 8



If the lender has confirmed that everything is in order, they will issue a mortgage offer.




Step 9


Exchange contracts. This is where you become committed to purchase the property. Sometimes, this is done on the same day as moving in.




Step 10



Completion! This is when you can collect your keys from the estate agent and it's all yours!
