Frequently asked questions
Which firm does Payotte select as mortgage adviser in Newcastle upon Tyne?
Payotte selects Northern Standard Mortgages as mortgage adviser in Newcastle upon Tyne, with a score of 69/100 (partial · below the 70/100 threshold).
Do I need an adviser to get a mortgage?
Nothing we read says so. You can approach lenders directly, and an adviser is a choice. Compare the cost against what you gain.
Is the rule the same in Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland?
The FCA's pages we read speak of the UK as a whole and do not distinguish the four nations.
How does Payotte choose this firm?
Payotte selects a single firm per trade and per area, scored out of 100 points from public data. The public grid has five criteria: Google reviews (35 points), age of the company (30), checkable regulator or register (15), local anchoring (15) and bonus (5). Companies only, never individuals.
Can a firm pay to be ranked?
No. The ranking is never paid for. No firm can buy its place or its recommendation. Payotte is free, with no advertising and no commission.
How can I check this firm's regulator?
The regulator or register is declared on the firm's website (no. 954748); Payotte does not read the register on your behalf. Check it with the official body: Financial Conduct Authority (FCA), the FCA Register. The company number 13011230 can be checked at Companies House.
What does the score of 69/100 mean?
It is an editorial assessment by Payotte, not an official label. This score is below the 70/100 threshold: the listing is partial, as some data could not be recorded.
