Mortgages Inc. Ltd of PO Box 63, Wheatley, Oxford, OX33 1WE trades as a Limited Company. Our company number is 05051867.
We offer an advised service for Mortgages and Insurance. We will advise and make a recommendation for you
after we have assessed your needs.
If you are purchasing (or remortgaging) a buy to let property, we will only advise you on the mortgage
arrangements; we will not provide advice on the tax or investment elements of the transaction. Should you
require tax or investment advice, you should seek this from a suitably authorised and qualified individual.
We offer products from a range of insurers for pure protection (non-investment) insurance contracts. E.G. Life,
Critical Illness and Income Protection Insurances.
We offer products based upon a fair analysis of general insurance providers for:
• Property, contents, personal possessions cover;
• Accident, sickness & unemployment cover;
A list of the insurers with whom we transact business is available on request.
We offer a comprehensive range of first charge & second charge mortgages from across the market, but not deals that you can only obtain by going direct to a lender. A list of the lenders that we provide advice from is available on request.
If you are looking to increase the borrowing on a property, the following alternative finance options may be
appropriate for you:
• Further advance from your existing lender;
• Second charge mortgage;
• A new first charge mortgage;
• Unsecured lending.
We do not offer advice on unsecured lending.
Some mortgages are regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) and some are not:
• Residential mortgages are regulated by the FCA;
• Buy-to-let mortgages are not normally regulated by the FCA;
• Some buy-to-let transactions, however, are defined as “consumer buy-to-let” - we will advise you if this
applies to your application.
• Communicate clearly, promptly and in plain English;
• Explain all costs involved before they are incurred;
• Evaluate your needs before making a recommendation;
• Review the market from our list of providers to recommend the most suitable product and provider for
your needs and circumstances;
• Deal with reputable providers of mortgage and insurance products; however, we cannot be responsible for
their levels of service, including any delays in processing of your application caused by the product
provider. Of course, we will work to mitigate these wherever possible.
• Provide a decision in principal before conducting a thorough review of your circumstances and needs (fact
find) and obtaining sufficient supporting information to assist the application;
• Cause you to incur a credit search without first notifying you;
• Act without first obtaining your permission to do so;
• Cause you to incur costs without your prior agreement to proceed.
During our initial consultation we will complete a client questionnaire (fact find) to enable us to better
understand your circumstances and your needs; this enables us to give appropriate advice on your Mortgage
and Protection needs. A copy of this questionnaire is available for you to review upon request.
We will subsequently conduct research to establish what products are most appropriate for your needs and
make these recommendations to you. These recommendations will be confirmed in writing as the advice we
provided.
You will also be provided an illustration regarding the product(s) recommended.
• No fee is payable for our service in relation to insurance contracts;
• We will be paid commission by the insurer.
• No fee is payable for our service in relation to mortgage contracts;
• We will be paid commission by the lender; the amount of the commission due to be paid is available upon
request and will be disclosed via the mortgage illustration.
If you wish to register a complaint, please contact us:
In writing: The Right Mortgage Limited, St John’s Court, 70 St John’s Close, Knowle, B93 0NH.
By phone: 01564 732 744
If you cannot settle your complaint with us, you may be entitled to refer it to the Financial Ombudsman
Service. http://www.financial-ombudsman.org.uk
It is your responsibility to deal with us in an honest and transparent manner. Failure to disclose key facts that
relate to your personal circumstances could significantly influence the advice given. In some circumstances
failure to disclose information could impact upon your ability to obtain the most suitable product and could
even invalidate the product, such as in the event it is interpreted as material non-disclosure that could be
considered to be a fraudulent act.
If you have any doubts as to whether you should disclose a matter it is better to notify the provider and allow
them to make an informed decision.
It is also your responsibility to check that the product provided is as you expected, therefore you should check
the application and ‘offer’ document on a mortgage and the application and policy document on an insurance
policy. If it is not as expected, please notify your adviser immediately.
