Do not use A Hall mortgage company an affiliation with foxtons (in the same headquarters)!!!

As a former employee and being in contact with some current employees. I know that personal mortgage files are handed over to the estate agents with bank details etc in. These are not supposed to leave the Mortgage brokers building.

This also means that the estate agent will know how how much you can afford! and push you up to 6x your salary. Do not be taken in by it!
