Explain What a Mortgage Offer Actually Means

The mortgage offer lands, it's a wall of terms, and you're meant to sign it. This walks a first-time buyer through the parts that matter: the rate and what happens when the deal period ends, how your monthly payments are worked out, the fees buried in the small print. Plain language, no regulated advice.

2. Monthly payments: how they are calculated and what can change them
3. The total amount repayable: why it is so much higher than the loan
4. Early repayment charges: when they apply and roughly what they cost
5. Any conditions the lender has attached
