Currently, anyone applying for a mortgage using online mortgage brokers will only be shown the rates on offer, without checking whether they are eligible for the product.
Pradeep Raman, chief executive of Dwell, said: “While a major life ambition for most people, the fact remains that buying a house routinely tops lists on surveys of the most stressful life events, and initial timewasting is a big factor in this.
“For those who have a timeline for their purchase or move in mind, delays can have a material impact as well as the time and anxiety involved with preparing a mortgage application.”
