A new kind of Mortgage Broker in Lewisham
Those who have never bought property in Lewisham before are often taken aback by the cumbersome, unnecessarily long-winded process of trying to get a mortgage from a traditional lender. It’s enough to make some reconsider whether homeownership is worth it. Mortigo was started in order to provide prospective homebuyers with a better, faster, simpler way to get the financing they need. Our clients agree we’re a better kind of mortgage broker in Lewisham. We do away with the drudgery and embrace technologically-driven efficiency.
Living in Lewisham
Nestled between Greenwich and Southwark, Lewisham is sometimes overshadowed by its more historic neighbour. But for those with homes here, there is nothing second-rate about living in Lewisham. Lewisham offers an array of amenities that make it the go-to choice for professionals, families and investors. Let’s look at some of those amenities now.
Transport
Lewisham is served by the Southeastern line with direct access to London Bridge and London Victoria. The area is also served by the Thameslink and by Docklands Light Rail (DLR) service at Deptford Bridge and Elverson Road. For Thameslink and the Southeastern line, it takes an average of about 20 minutes to reach London Bridge. There are also many bus lines that crisscross Lewisham, connecting it to surrounding towns and boroughs, while both Gatwick and Heathrow are 45 minutes to an hour by car.
Restaurants in Lewisham
Lewisham might seem an unlikely place to explore gastronomic delights but appearances can be deceiving. Fact is, if you are a fan of ethnic cuisine you’ll find all you can handle here. There’s nouvelle cuisine, Italian, Nigerian, Turkish, Sri Lankan, Afro-Portuguese, Caribbean, Indian, African, Japanese, Jamaican and more along with outstanding seafood, pizza and numerous pubs including the Joiners Arms, Dacre Arms, The Talbot, Ladywell Tavern, The Old Tigers Head, The Anchor, Fox & Firkin and more.
Food shopping
The area is also well-served by a variety of supermarkets including Tesco, Asda and Sainsbury. But if you want the best fresh fruits and vegetables you need to make your way to Lewisham Market. Begun in 1906 the market is one of the few in London that operates 7 days a week. It also has the unfortunate distinction of being one of the places struck by a German V1 rocket during WWII. 56 people died in the attack and nearly 100 were injured.
Health clubs
There are numerous health and fitness clubs within 15 minutes of Lewisham centre, including The Gym Group, NRG Gym Lewisham, Evolve Fitness Studio, Fitology, PureGym Greenwich, Anytime Fitness, Sound Fitness and more. You’ll also find Yoga clubs, martial arts centres and swimming pools. Most notably the Saxon Crown Swimming Club.
Step 1: You introduce yourself
We’d like to lend hundreds of thousands of pounds to total strangers but we wouldn’t last long if we did that. So we need to know who you are. To make it easy we give you 3 ways to provide some basic information: use the “self-service” option on our website, send us the info via Whatsapp, or stop in to our office and introduce yourself in person. Whatever works best for you.
Step 2: You receive your AIP
If you get us your info in the morning you should have your Agreement in Principle in the afternoon. That’s right. The same day. How do we do it? Simple: we put state-of-the-art technology on the case. Traditional lenders can keep pretending it’s 1974 but we choose to live in the here and now. And in the 2020s, there is no reason you should have to wait days or weeks for an AIP.
Step 3: We wrap it up
Once the AIP is to everyone's liking we move into the final phase: getting you your money. At this point, it is a-okay for you to start getting excited because you are truly closing in on the end of the homebuying process. And just because we like to go the extra mile for our clients we'll also provide you at this time with some extra information on your new property.
