Fees and expenses
Mortgage and lending planning fee
- Mortgage Brokers Wairarapa advisers are usually remunerated by way of commission, by the providers of the loan products we recommend. On occasion, some providers may not pay a commission. In this situation, we will charge a fee for our advice. The fee payable will be a reflection of the time required to obtain a loan approval for you. Where a fee will be payable for our advice, your Mortgage Brokers Wairarapa adviser will agree the amount of the fee with you prior to obtaining a lending approval. You will not be sent a bill without discussing and agreeing to this beforehand. This fee can, in most cases, be added to your loan amount and will be paid to Mortgage Brokers Wairarapa at the time your loan is advanced.
Conflicts of interest
For mortgages and lending, Mortgage Brokers Wairarapa and the financial adviser receive commissions from some of the lenders we can provide recommendations for. If you proceed to implement lending with the lender recommended to you, the lender will pay a commission to your financial adviser. The amount of the commission is based on the amount of the lending; specific remuneration will be advised to you when advice is provided.
From time to time, product providers may also reward us for the overall business we provide to them. They may give us hampers, or other incentives.
To ensure that our financial advisers prioritise the client’s interests above their own, we follow an advice process that ensures our personalised recommendations are made on the basis of the client’s goals and circumstances, as advised to us. Mortgage Brokers Wairarapa financial advisers complete regular training, including how to manage conflicts of interest. Each adviser has a regular compliance review of their advice process, and our compliance programme is reviewed annually.
