How Better.co.uk works

01

Better.co.uk can operate as a fee-free online mortgage broker because we get paid by your lender when you complete your mortgage or remortgage – not you.

02

This is known as the "procuration" or "proc" fee. Most brokers, even the ones that charge you for their services, get a proc fee from the lender when they arrange a mortgage on your behalf.

03

If we help you arrange insurance, the insurer pays us when you complete the purchase, and your cover starts.

04

We do not give our advisers incentives to recommend specific insurers or lenders, so you will always receive impartial, quality advice.

Who are Better.co.uk?

We’re the UK's first online mortgage broker, offering our customers a more straightforward, quicker, and stress-free mortgage process. Our mission is to make mortgages faster, simpler, and more affordable.

We are a mortgage broker, not a comparison site. Rather than act as a comparison site, we tailor our service to each customer and do all the searching for you.

With access to over 100 lenders, we have the scope to search the market, compare deals, and narrow down your options.

All you have to do is sign up with us and one of our advisers will soon be in touch.

Rather than matching your deal, we search for the right mortgage for you from our whole-of-market panel. In some scenarios, we might be able to match that product, but we'll always offer what we think is the most suitable mortgage for your particular circumstances.

We ask what’s important to you; whether it be low monthly payments, a shorter mortgage term, or a low rate. We then use this information combined with your personal circumstances to find the right product for you.

Our initial consultation service is always free. Once you decide to proceed with a mortgage application, you may have to pay a fee depending on your circumstances and credit history. We charge a fee of £199 for the administration of your application when you fall under our definition of “Adverse”.

Our administration fee will be refunded if we cannot find you a lender.  

Be aware that you might still incur fees elsewhere.

Typically lenders tend to have their own fees, such as valuation fees and product fees. These will be outlined by your mortgage adviser before your application is submitted. We’ll also factor these into your affordability so there are no nasty surprises later down the line.

Other fees you may come across when applying for a mortgage are solicitor fees. Some lenders offer a free solicitors service, however, you also have the option to obtain your own paid solicitors.

Like many brokers, we receive a fee from the lender for helping you secure a mortgage with them. This fee is not added to your mortgage, it comes solely from the lender.

We’re proud to work with over 90 lenders, including your high street lenders such as Halifax, Barclays and Santander.

We also work with your lesser-known mortgage lenders who are able to help in more unique circumstances, such as adverse credit and smaller deposits.
