Frequently Asked Questions

Is this service really free?

Yes, this is completely free to use. We check 58 UK lenders with no hidden charges, no subscriptions and no credit search.

How accurate are the results?

Our calculations are based on each lender's published affordability criteria, stress test rates, and income multiples. Results are indicative estimates — actual mortgage offers depend on additional factors like credit history and property valuation. The tool is built and maintained by a CeMAP-qualified mortgage advisor.

Do you sell my data?

No. We do not share, sell, or pass your information to any lender, broker, or third party. Your data is used solely to calculate your affordability results.

How is this different from a mortgage broker?

We show you what every lender would offer based on your income and circumstances, so you can see the full picture before speaking to anyone. A mortgage broker then helps you choose the right product and submit your application. Many users take our report to their broker to save time.

Does it affect my credit score?

No. We do not perform any credit searches. Your credit file is not accessed or affected. You can check as many times as you like without any impact.
