It has been a busy and rewarding week here at Mortgages in Lincoln, with client wins, interesting conversations and more completions than you can shake a survey at. Here is a peek behind the scenes at what we have all been working on:
Colin
No two weeks are ever the same, and this one proved it. I had a truly memorable conversation with new clients about their grand piano, and also met someone who was a runner-up on the iconic music quiz Pop Master. It is always interesting who walks through the door.
On a more technical note, I spotted a potential asbestos issue on a survey we arranged, so we are now guiding the client through the next steps to protect them. We also successfully ported an existing mortgage to a new property, avoiding a hefty £5,200 in Early Repayment Charges for the client. That one felt particularly satisfying as it saved them money while helping them move into their dream home.
Sarah
It has been all go this week with a wave of completions. I have been busy wrapping things up and making sure protection is in place for each client. It is such a key part of what we do, giving people peace of mind alongside their mortgage offer.
Amy
A really varied week for me. I have submitted mortgage applications to a range of lenders including Barclays, Santander and VIDA. It has been great experience getting more involved with the adviser side of things. I have also been in front of the camera filming content for our social media platforms, so keep an eye out for me popping up on your feed.
Carrie
Lots of initial documents to check this week, which means I have been working closely with clients to gather everything quickly. Getting the documents in early allows Colin to research the widest possible range of mortgage options and make sure each recommendation is properly tailored.
It is moments like these, from creative client chats to helping people save thousands, that remind us why we love what we do. And no matter how complex or straightforward your situation might be, we are here to help.
Remember: Your home may be repossessed if you do not keep up repayments on your mortgage.
