As your Mortgage Broker in Manchester, we carry out a Fact Find to establish your personal needs before we recommend the most suitable mortgage for you. A credit check is then required for an Agreement in Principle.

An Agreement in Principle typically lasts for between 30 and 90 days depending on the lender used. If your Agreement in Principle expires it can always be refreshed.
