A first-time buyer mortgage is a home loan designed for people purchasing their first property. It typically requires a smaller deposit, often as low as 5%, and in some cases, you may even find options with no deposit at all
As of now, first-time buyers in England and Northern Ireland benefit from the following stamp duty relief:
In Scotland, first-time buyers pay the Land and Buildings Transaction Tax (LBTT), with a tax-free threshold of £175,000. Any amount above this is subject to tax rates starting from 2%.
In Wales, the Land Transaction Tax (LTT) applies, and first-time buyers only pay tax on properties priced over £180,000. There is currently no specific relief for first-time buyers in Wales, but the tax structure is similar to that of Scotland.
If your mortgage is nearing its end, it’s advisable to contact our remortgage advisors at least five to six months beforehand. This timeframe allows us to assess your situation, see what your current lender might offer to keep you, and compare it with other options on the market. It’s crucial not to automatically renew with your existing lender, as some may initially offer attractive rates but not the best options when it’s time to renew. This could lead you to a more expensive deal that no longer fits your financial needs, especially if your circumstances have changed.
A home mover mortgage is a type of loan for people who are moving to a new home. This includes those who are selling their current property as well as those who want to keep it, turning it into a buy-to-let (BTL) investment or gifting it to their children. If you’re moving, you can use the money from selling your old home as a deposit for your new one.

EXCELLENT Based on 110 reviews Posted on Google Kemal AsiliTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I was put in touch with Firat after not being able to secure a mortgage offer using my previous broker. Firat was very helpful and always did what he could to make sure I got the best offers available on the market. Felt more like a friend to me than a mortgage broker. I have successfully purchased the property I was after and I can’t thank Firat enough for all his help throughout the process. Hopefully will be dealing with him again on the next purchase! 😎🙏🏼Posted on Google Tanya DicksonTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We have had an excellent experience with Appleton Mortgages. Firat has been patient, taken the time to explain the process and has kept us updated throughout. The process has been seamless and the service top notch. We would highly recommend!Posted on Google Ajmal HabibullahTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. As first-time buyers, we had plenty of questions and concerns, and from our very first conversation, Firat at Appleton Mortgages was incredibly patient, knowledgeable, and reassuring. He truly went above and beyond throughout the entire process. Firat was always just a message away and consistently took the time to answer our many questions in a clear and easy-to-understand manner. He even provided valuable guidance on whether the asking price of the properties we were considering represented good value, which was immensely helpful as inexperienced buyers. Throughout the process, he was completely transparent, and our mortgage application was handled quickly and efficiently. Nothing ever felt rushed, and we always felt that he had our best interests at heart. If you're a first-time buyer looking for straightforward, honest advice delivered in a friendly and approachable way, I cannot recommend Firat at Appleton Mortgages highly enough. He made what could have been a stressful experience feel simple and manageable, and we are incredibly grateful.Posted on Google Hazal SeyitogluTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. This review comes from a place of genuine gratitude for all of Firat's support. From the very beginning, he was approachable and always willing to answer every little question we had. No matter how busy he was, he always made time for us and never made us feel like any question was too small. He guided us through every step of the process, making sure we understood everything and always knew what to expect. As someone who values being organised and proactive, I was looking for someone who worked in the same way and he exceeded our expectations. His support turned what I thought would be a stressful experience into a calm and, dare I say, enjoyable one! We are so grateful to have met you, Firat!Posted on Google Amarildo ThaqiTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

Would highly recommend!!Posted on Google Kriste Lescins AhmetTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. As a first time buyer, the market and process can be quite daunting however Firat Coban exceeded all expectations. He was patient, professional and (super!) quick. He explained every step in detail and reassured myself and my husband. Pretty much all the estate agents in Enfield know him - “hes very sharp isnt he” were the exact words my estate agent said when I mentioned who my mortgage broker was! Couldnt reccomend Appleton Mortgages enough!!!
