The Remortgage Enquiry
Mrs Okafor's two-year fixed-rate mortgage ends in three months. She contacts her adviser to remortgage and says she just wants "whatever's cheapest" without going through a full advice conversation. The adviser explains that a fact-find and affordability assessment are still required before a recommendation can be made, and provides her with an illustration setting out the costs of the recommended product before she applies.
