One year in as a B Corp, and B Corp Month feels like the perfect moment to pause and reflect. 💚

We celebrated our very first B Corp anniversary last week, and as a team we’ve put our all into this first year. Not for a badge, but because we genuinely want to build a business that does right by people, clients, and the planet.

A massive shoutout to the Heron team for bringing the standards to life day to day. From volunteering and fundraising for the charities we support, to embedding the values into how we advise and care for clients through our People Champions, to the environmental commitments we’ve made behind the scenes.

We’ve planted thousands of trees already, and we’re only getting started. This year, we’re aiming to go further.

Proud to be part of a global community of B Corps raising the bar for what responsible business looks like. 🌍

If you have a mortgage and you do nothing when your deal ends, most lenders move you onto their standard variable rate. That is when payments can jump, and a lot of people only notice after it hits their bank account.

Yes, lenders usually write to you. The problem is it is often one letter, easy to miss, easy to ignore, or it ends up in the “I will deal with that later” pile. Then your direct debit changes and you are suddenly paying more for no real benefit.

We break down how to avoid this and what to do instead in our latest podcast episode. Link in bio 🎧💬

When is it actually smart to hold off remortgaging?

A common one is when you are planning to move house in the next 6 to 12 months. People often avoid locking into a new deal because they do not want early repayment charges or hassle while they are preparing to move.

But here is the bit most homeowners miss. Many fixed deals are portable, meaning you can move the mortgage product to the new property, so you do not have to sit on a high standard variable rate while you wait. Portability depends on lender criteria and the new property, but it is worth checking.

We talk through this properly in the full episode. Podcast link in bio 🎧💬

Is it true that a bigger deposit gets you a better mortgage rate?

In general, yes. A higher deposit usually means a lower rate because the lender sees it as less risk. You own more of the property from day one, so there is more equity behind the mortgage.

But it is lender specific. Not every lender prices products the same way, and a bigger deposit does not automatically guarantee the best deal for you.

If you are trying to work out what deposit level makes a real difference to your monthly payment, we can run the numbers properly and compare across the market. We are not saying that just because we are fee-free mortgage advisers. It genuinely helps you avoid guessing.

Lenders are starting to reward energy-efficient homes with better mortgage rates, and penalise inefficient ones.

A higher EPC could mean lower repayments and even access to “green mortgage” products.

At Heron, we’ll show you how simple upgrades — insulation, solar, glazing — can add value and improve eligibility for future deals.

Good for your wallet, good for the planet. 🌱

Too many would-be buyers rule themselves out before they’ve even started, because they think the deposit hurdle is too high.

In reality, some lenders accept as little as 5%, depending on your circumstances and credit profile.

At Heron, we’ll break down your options clearly — no jargon, no false hope — and show you the smartest path forward.

The result? Clarity, confidence, and maybe your first set of keys sooner than you think.

When your mortgage deal ends, your lender quietly moves you to their standard variable rate.

That “small change” can mean hundreds more every month, money you could be saving or investing elsewhere.

At Heron, we keep your deal under review so you never drift into an expensive rate.

You’ll always know your next best option — fee-free, stress-free, and on your terms.

💬 Think your deal’s ending soon? Let’s check before your rate jumps.
