  • I get that I paid for a service and the service was provided and I understand that the broker gets paid too and will look to maximise their commission. That said, Mike was invaluable throughout our home-buying process and our recent remortgage. He answered many worried questions from me and I see the worth of paying for his services.

    Solicitors are generally bad cunts, no one recommends their solicitor it seems.

  • Solicitors are generally bad cunts

    This isn't true at all.

    The folks that operate conveyancing factories are probably cunts, in that they create a system that doesn't really work for anyone. But they sell a cheap service. Pays your money, takes your choice. They are largely responsible for the race to the bottom.

    It's likely the broker - who basically just found you a product and filled in some digital forms - got paid more than the solicitor, who actually tries to protect you from the madness. If they are doing their job, anyway.
