Trusted Mortgage Broker in Swansea – Expert Mortgage Advice with Lewis Davies at Searchlight Mortgages

Hi, I’m Lewis Davies, the founder of Searchlight Mortgages, your local and trusted mortgage broker in Swansea. With over 30 years of experience in the financial services industry, I’ve built this company to provide tailored, expert mortgage advice to clients across Swansea and the surrounding areas.

Throughout my career—from trainee manager to area manager covering half the UK—I’ve gained deep insight into the ever-changing UK mortgage market. Today, with lending criteria more complex than ever and lenders interpreting regulations differently, getting the right mortgage advice is absolutely essential. It’s no longer just about interest rates—it’s about finding the lender that best fits your unique financial situation.

At Searchlight Mortgages, we take pride in offering personalised mortgage solutions. Every client consultation includes a full assessment of your circumstances, followed by a comprehensive recommendation of suitable mortgage products and protection policies. We take the time to explain everything clearly, then handle the entire application process for you—from submission to successful completion.

Using industry-leading technology, we can quickly identify the most competitive deals, the most appropriate lenders, and the right insurance providers tailored to your needs.

Whether you’re a first-time buyer, moving home, remortgaging, or investing in buy-to-let property, we’re here to help. If you’re looking for expert mortgage advice in Swansea, contact us today by phone or email to arrange an initial consultation.

I have seen many changes in the mortgage market over the years and firmly believe that proper advice is more important in the current climate than it ever has been. Lenders vary and many of them have differing opinions on how current regulation is interpreted, this makes choosing the right provider more difficult than ever not just for the interest rate charged but also for the lender who will be best suited to your circumstances.
Every client interview that we undertake will include a full assessment of your circumstances and a full recommendation on all relevant products and policies. We will explain the recommended mortgage to you in detail and, then, do all the work to submit the application and manage the case through to completion.
We have, at our disposal, technology which will help pinpoint the best deal, lender and insurance provider for your individual circumstances.
If you think that we can help you please contact us by phone or email and we can have an initial discussion and agree a way forward.

Mortgage

There are so many lenders operating in the UK that it can be a minefield to find your way around them all and what they have to offer, this has been further complicated by recent regulation which has meant that lenders need to be more provident in their approach to lending criteria. This does not mean that difficult mortgage applications are impossible to place but serves as a reminder that experienced and impartial advice is more important than ever before.
For you, the consumer, this means that there are a bewildering number of mortgage products available from lenders who have differing criteria to apply to applicants such as yourself.
At Searchlight Mortgages we will always fully assess your personal circumstances and, following thorough research, recommend the most suitable mortgage and protection products to you. We will always talk through the recommended mortgage in detail and do all the work for you by submitting the application and chasing through to completion.
As an unbiased mortgage broker we have access to the whole of the UK mortgage market and have the technology to search for your perfect mortgage and related insurance products.

Re-Mortgage

Your current mortgage deal may have come to an end or you need to raise some capital, maybe even both.
We often hear about the dilemma of whether to move or improve and a capital raising remortgage can be a suitable way to finance your home improvements should you decide to stay where you are and improve your existing property.
Remortgaging can potentially save you money by applying a lower interest rate to your mortgage, this can be done by staying with your current lender or moving to a new one. It is also an excellent opportunity to review your mortgage term and/or your repayment method. Either way it will be worth talking to us where we will, again, thoroughly review your circumstances and current mortgage and insurance products to ensure that you are given the very best advice.
