Client reviews

What our clients say

Real reviews from people we’ve helped with their mortgages.

“I honestly cannot recommend Jordan at The Mortgage Hive highly enough. He has been absolutely amazing throughout the whole remortgage process… Jordan always took the time to explain everything clearly and never made me feel like I was asking a silly question.”

Kelly D.Remortgage · Google review

“We’ve used Paul’s services twice now… Paul gave us some options we didn’t even realise were available to us… It was a complex case involving a Buy-to-Let mortgage, but Paul explained everything in detail.”

Joanna H.Buy-to-let · Google review

“I have used Jordan for 6 years. We have remortgaged, borrowed more and now looking to self build. He is professional and informative. Wouldn’t go anywhere else.”

What is a Decision in Principle?

A Decision in Principle, also known as a Mortgage in Principle, Agreement in Principle, AIP or DIP, is an indication from a lender of how much they may be prepared to lend based on the information provided.

It is not a full mortgage offer. A lender will still need to assess your full application, documents, credit profile, property valuation and underwriting before they confirm a mortgage offer.
