Common questions

Everything you wanted to ask but didn’t.

How much does it cost to use a mortgage broker?

Our standard broker fee is paid only when your mortgage completes. For NHS staff and Blue Light Card holders, it’s free — every time. We’ll always tell you the fee upfront in writing before any work starts.

How do we work together — in person or remote?

However suits you. Most of our clients work with us entirely by phone, video call and email — wherever you are in the UK. If you’re local to Suffolk and prefer to meet in person, we can arrange that too.

Can you help if I’m self-employed or have a tricky case?

Absolutely. Self-employed, contractor, complex income, adverse credit — there are specialist lenders for almost every situation, and a big part of our job is knowing who to take which case to.

How early should I start before my fixed rate ends?

Six months out is the sweet spot. Most lenders let us reserve a rate that far ahead, so we can lock something in early and switch if rates drop.

Are you regulated?

Yes — Giles Financial Services is authorised and regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority. You can check the register at fca.org.uk.
