First-time Buyers
Which mortgage do you need? What can you afford? As a first-time buyer, this can all be a bit daunting. It’s okay, we’re here to help you.
Remortgaging
There are lots of reasons for remortgaging. Improvements to your home, using equity to add value to your house … but why limit yourself to your own bank?
Moving Home
Do you have a growing family? Are you changing your job? Don’t limit yourself to your current lender. Let’s arrange a meeting and see how we can help!
Insurance
What if something did happen? Protect your family. Insurance looks at the bigger costs of living. Things like mortgage payments and other bills. Most importantly, it will give you peace of mind.

Julie at MAPIO did an incredible job arranging our mortgage. We were so happy with the service we received and would recommend Julie to anyone – she’s lovely, professional and so knowledgeable! She really did take the stress away from our move. Would highly recommend. Thank you so much again!Lucy Goodall (October 2024)
Julie Taylor was recommended to us by some friends. From the off she has made the whole process so simple. We are first time buyers so we had no experience, Julie has been great at putting everything into Layman’s terms, breaking everything down into manageable steps, and keeping us updated every step of the way. She has gone above and beyond what we expected, even helping us with the agents and solicitors. Any queries we have had she’s responded swiftly and always in the most friendly manner. Could not recommend Julie enough, thank you for all your help, Lou & Wayne (first time homeowners 😊)Louise Percival (September 2024)
Mortgage FAQs
- Can you explain how mortgages work?
Yes. That’s what we’re here for! Your home may be repossessed if you don’t keep up the repayments on your mortgage, so it’s vital that you understand the commitment you’re making.
- Do we have to buy insurance?
The lenders will ask you to put buildings insurance in place, before they’ll release their funds. And we’ll encourage you to consider life insurance, critical illness cover and income protection – to make sure you and your family have access to money that will help pay that mortgage – if the unexpected happens to you.
- Which type of mortgage do we need?
Let’s find out. We’ll find out what your current situation is – your income and your outgoings – and we’ll look at the deals available for a range of mortgage types, too. Don’t worry, we can explain how each mortgage would work in detail.
- Why use a mortgage advisor?
When you want a mortgage, it’s good to get impartial advice and MAPIO Financial can provide this. Any mortgage advice service, York-based or anywhere else, should start by helping you to understand how much you can afford. At MAPIO Financial, one of the first things we’ll do is go through a thorough cost of moving exercise with you.
This way, we can give you the mortgage advice that is right for you. It’s mortgage advice that has real value – getting you a mortgage that suits your needs. If you have a long term relationship with your bank, you might look at their mortgages – but you won’t see all the other mortgage deals available, and bear in mind we have exclusives deals not available direct or on the high street. At MAPIO Financial we advise you on what is best for you now and what is best for you moving forward.
MAPIO Financial is a York mortgage advisor that believes your future happiness depends on your family being secure, financially and we are here to help, guide and support you on that journey.
