No impact on your credit score

Instant Access to Mortgage Calculators & Live Rates

Within this page, there are lots of tools that can help you understand your mortgage position. These tools are all designed to be used as guidance, nothing more. Some of our tools, such as the Live Rate Finder, are linked to live mortgage rates. Other tools around repayment how much you can borrow and affordability calculations are all designed as an indicative idea of what you could do. 

We would always advise to speak with a Mortgage Broker, should you want to proceed with a Decision in Principle, or whether you want to officially assess how much you can borrow. If you are buying a new property, you are best to get mortgage ready and be ready to make a formal offer and be seen as a serious buyer.

Live Rate Mortgage Finder %

Welcome to our live mortgage rate finder.  This is just an indicative guide to help you see the sorts of rates that are accessible through some of the lenders we work with at The Mortgage Broker. It is always better to speak to a Mortgage Broker, as we can quickly understand your circumstances and access over 23,000 mortgage products through our panel of nearly 100 Mortgage Lenders. Not all lenders enable a live feed to their products, so this is just illustrating a segment of the market.
