Mortgages

We have a direct client fee associated with arranging applications and providing advice. We charge a fee of 1% of the mortgage amount sought for submission of a mortgage application to a mortgage provider, subject to a minimum fee of €1,500. This is not in any way an indication of mortgage/loan approval. Our fee will be notified to the lender who will include this fee into the calculation of the APRC (Annual Percentage Rate Change). PIBA Mortgage Services charges a broker fee of €250 per application. The €250 is to cover the direct application processing costs and is non-refundable. This €250 fee is included in our minimum fee of €1,500 mentioned above. For example: If you are seeking a mortgage for €150,000, we charge a fee of 1% of €150,000 = €1,500. The total fee due is paid up front.

In addition, we may receive up to 1% of the loan as a commission payment from the lender for arranging mortgage finance. All commission earned on the mortgage is passed on to the firm in full. The actual amount of commission will be disclosed at a later stage in the ESIS (European Standardised Information Sheet) which will be forwarded to you. Information on the variation in levels of commission payable by the different creditors providing credit agreements being offered are available on request.

Please note that lenders may charge specific fees in certain circumstances and if this applies, these fees will be specified in your Loan Offer. You have the right to pay a fee separately and not include it in the loan. Typically, this situation arises in relation to specialist lending.
