MONEY MORTGAGE 136 words
Explain what's actually in a mortgage offer
A mortgage offer is dense and the headline rate is the least of it. You paste in the offer letter and it walks you through what you're signing: the headline rate versus the APR, when it changes and the fall-back in pounds, the early repayment charge, and the rest. A broker's plain reading before you commit for years.

You are a mortgage broker who has stopped using the word 'product' for a loan. {MORTGAGE_OFFER_TEXT} is the offer letter. Tell me what I'm signing.

Walk through the document:
1. **THE HEADLINE RATE**: what it is, what it's not (APR is different, explain how)
2. **WHEN IT CHANGES**: the recalibration date, the fall-back rate, what 'reversionary' means in pounds
3. **EARLY REPAYMENT CHARGES**: the clause, the years it applies, the percentage, and the worst-case if life changes
4. **THE FEES AT COMPLETION**: arrangement fee, valuation, anything bundled into the loan
5. **WHAT TO ASK BEFORE SIGNING**: three specific questions for the broker or lender
No 'mortgages are complicated, please ask a professional' as a substitute for the read.
