We’ll be in touch within one working day.
Looking for a mortgage broker in Norwich? We'll be straight with you: City Mortgage Solutions Limited doesn't have an office in the Lanes. What we do have is a whole-of-market advice team who work with Norwich buyers every week, by phone, video and email, around your schedule.
The mortgage market is national, so the lenders and rates open to you are exactly the same as any local broker can access. What matters is the quality of the advice and knowing your market, and that travels down a video call perfectly well.

Simple from the first call
Buying from Norwich, advised from anywhere
Three simple steps, plain English throughout, and the same adviser from your first question to your completion.
1
Start with a free chat
Tell us about your move, a first flat in the city, a family home in Eaton, or a remortgage. We'll talk through your budget and options with no obligation, evenings included.
2
We compare the whole market
We search 90+ lenders for the deal that fits your income and deposit, explain our recommendation clearly, and line up your agreement in principle ready to offer in Norwich.
3
We see it through
From application through to completion, we manage the paperwork, chase the lender for updates and keep your solicitor and estate agent moving in step.
Local knowledge that matters
Buying in Norwich: what we see in your market
From period terraces in the Golden Triangle to new build on the city's edge, we factor the local picture into your advice.
Stamp Duty (SDLT)
We'll estimate your Stamp Duty Land Tax, including first-time-buyer relief and the surcharge on second homes, as part of your total costs before you offer.
Period & new-build homes
Norwich mixes characterful older property with new estates around Sprowston and Costessey. Each suits different lenders, and we match yours to the right one.
Timing your offer
Good homes move quickly here. Having your finances arranged and an agreement in principle ready means you can offer with confidence.
Why use a broker
A Norwich bank branch shows one shelf. We show the whole market.
There's nothing wrong with walking into your own bank, but it's one lender's view. See what changes when our advisers work for you instead.

Common questions
Norwich mortgage questions, answered straight
No. We're a UK-wide brokerage rather than a high-street Norwich office, and we work with buyers across the city and Norfolk every week by phone and video. Because the mortgage market is national, the lenders and rates open to you are exactly the same as a local broker's; what you get from us is the advice and the legwork.
Yes. It's how most of our Norwich clients prefer to do it. Documents are shared securely online, appointments fit around work and family including evenings, and you keep the same adviser from start to finish.
Yes. We advise across Norwich and Norfolk regularly, from city-centre flats and Golden Triangle terraces to family homes in Eaton, Cringleford and Sprowston, and out to Wymondham. We factor local prices, property types and demand into your advice.
Definitely. Much of Norwich is characterful older stock, and lenders treat construction and condition differently. We match your property to a lender comfortable with it, so a valuation surprise doesn't derail your purchase.
Your first consultation is free and without obligation. If a fee applies to your case we explain it clearly and in writing before you commit to anything.
As a rule of thumb, four to four-and-a-half times your income, though deposit, credit history and affordability all matter. We'll confirm an accurate figure and arrange an agreement in principle, usually within a few working days.
Usually within 24 hours, by phone or video and including evenings, so you can have an agreement in principle ready before you start making offers.
