Portsmouth's market includes period terraces in Southsea, converted and purpose-built flats, compact city homes and family property around Hilsea and Cosham. The lending questions can differ sharply by property, particularly where a lease, service charge, unusual construction or previous conversion is involved. Reviewing those details early can prevent an application being sent to a lender that is unlikely to accept the security.
Local applicants also include service personnel, shift workers, port employees, contractors and university staff. Basic pay may be only part of the picture, so we check how allowances, overtime, fixed-term work or other regular earnings can be evidenced. Advice is remote and the selected application is managed through underwriting, valuation and offer.




We support Portsmouth clients at different stages, including first purchases, forces moves, residential remortgages and landlord finance. Every recommendation starts with the applicant and the property.
We explain borrowing, deposit and buying costs clearly and flag property details that may matter before you commit to a Portsmouth flat or house.
We help coordinate the new mortgage with your sale, posting, relocation or onward chain, including a review of whether an existing mortgage can be ported.
We assess trading, contract, shift and supplementary income against lenders that can use the available evidence consistently.
We advise landlords on standard and specialist buy-to-let finance, rental coverage and portfolio information, while keeping planning, licensing and tax advice with the relevant professionals.
MBNM provides independent, regulated mortgage advice and can compare suitable options from more than 90 lenders.

You receive clear information without pressure to proceed.

As an independent broker, MBNM has access to mortgage options from over 90 lenders, giving clients access to deals they won’t find by walking into a single bank.
We regularly handle applications involving self-employed income, remortgaging, buy-to-let properties, and time-sensitive purchases, situations where bank-only advice often falls short.
From your first conversation through to mortgage offer, we handle paperwork, lender queries, and follow-ups, keeping things moving and keeping you informed.
MBNM is FCA regulated and focused on clear, jargon-free advice. No sales pressure, no hidden agendas, just guidance that makes sense for your goals.
We start with your goals, income, deposit, commitments and property details. We then check affordability and lender criteria, explain suitable options and confirm the costs. If you ask us to continue, we submit and manage the application, answer lender questions and keep you updated.
We start with a straightforward conversation to understand your situation, goals, and timeframe. This helps us assess affordability, lender criteria, and the most suitable mortgage options from the outset.
We compare mortgages across the whole market, reviewing rates, terms, and lender requirements to find an option that fits your circumstances, not just what’s easiest to place.
Once you’re happy, we manage the full application process. That includes paperwork, lender questions, and follow-ups, keeping things progressing without unnecessary delays.
When your mortgage offer is issued, we guide you through the final steps and coordinate with solicitors or agents as needed, right through to completion.
If you have a question, please do not hesitate to reach out!
Some lenders can use certain regular allowances, but their treatment varies. We review your payslips and service circumstances before selecting a lender.
Yes. We consider the lease, service charge, ground rent, construction and conversion details available because these can affect lender choice.
Some do, subject to property, experience, rental and licensing criteria. These are specialist cases and should be matched to an appropriate lender from the outset.
Possibly. Porting is subject to a fresh affordability and property assessment. We compare it with a new mortgage so you can see the costs and trade-offs.
Portsmouth clients are supported remotely by phone, video and WhatsApp, with secure document handling and regular updates.
Your first chat is free. If we can help, we explain any fee before you decide whether to proceed. There are no hidden fees, and we do not move forward until you have agreed them.
