That's a huge number when you think about how many of us rely on our wages to cover rent, mortgage payments and everyday bills. 🫣

81% of workers without cover are renting or paying a mortgage. Nearly half have children under 17 depending on that income too.

One in five full-time workers has gone through a stretch without their usual pay because they couldn't work. That's not a small risk; it's something that could derail your livelihood!

Income protection could provide you with a monthly income to help you pay the bills

We can walk you through how income protection works, what it might cover, and how it could sit alongside your budget and any workplace benefits you already have.

First-time buyers, this ones for you! Here are the most important questions you should ask when it comes to your mortgage 🔊

Your home may be repossessed if you do not keep up repayments on your mortgage.

Don't bank on your bank when it comes to your mortgage!

It may seem like the easiest option but the easiest option isn't always best - your bank can only show you their products even if there is something better out there.

That's why you need us, we search a wider market and find lenders that fit you rather than making you fit the lender 💪🏼

First-time buyers, there's some exciting news from the Autumn Budget!

Remember the Your First Home Scheme we mentioned a few weeks back?

Well, it's now been officially confirmed! ✅

This new government scheme is being introduced to help first-time buyers purchase a new-build home with a much smaller deposit.

🏡 You could buy with just a 2.5% deposit, alongside a government equity loan worth 20% of the property's value, with no interest charged for the first 5 years.

So, when can you apply?

📆 Applications are expected to open in February 2027, although this date hasn't been fully confirmed yet.

Before that, pre-registration will open before the end of 2026.

You won't be committing to a purchase by registering. Instead, you'll receive more details about eligibility and the maximum property prices in your area.

More information is available here:
https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/your-first-home/your-first-home

💷 There's also an update on savings for first-time buyers!

A new First Time Buyer ISA is being planned to offer a simpler way of saving towards a deposit.

It's intended to replace the Lifetime ISA for people opening a new account, but existing Lifetime ISA savers will be able to carry on using theirs.

We don't have a confirmed launch date for the new ISA just yet.

With these announcements, there's plenty for future homeowners to look forward to! 🤩

Renting can feel like a holding pattern.

You're paying every month, but it's someone else's mortgage getting smaller, not yours.

The good news? There's a way through, and it usually starts earlier than people think.

Before you open a savings account, look at a single listing, or download another property app, speak to us first. 🏡

We can help you work out how much deposit you actually need, and show you ways to build it up while you're still renting.

There are also products out there that could get you on the ladder with little to no deposit at all, depending on your situation.

Low-deposit mortgages are a brilliant product; they could allow you to buy a home with 5%, 2%, or even 0% down! 🤩

Everyone's starting point is different, so let's have a chat and figure out yours.

Contact us now and let's get your journey from tenant to homeowner started. ☎️

💙 Our September Cheque Giveaway: Supporting Younger People with Dementia 💙

A massive THANK YOU to all our clients whose mortgages completed with us in September. Because of your trust, and our pledge to donate £25 for every completion, we were delighted to present Younger People with Dementia with a cheque for £1,700.

We met with Amy and her colleagues on Friday afternoon and loved hearing about the fantastic work they do to support people living with young onset dementia and their families.

We were staggered to learn that YPWD supports people as young as their 30s. As a small charity, they rely heavily on donations and fundraising to continue providing this vital support.

It was wonderful to meet the team and learn more about the difference they make. Thank you again to all our clients, your decision to use Beechwood Mortgages is helping create a tangible difference in our community. 💙

Find out more about YPWD and discover how you can donate or get involved.

Death, taxes, and now this.

Your mortgage deal won't last forever, so it helps to plan ahead of time. 📅

When your fixed or initial term ends, your options change. You're not tied to sticking with the same lender or the same deal you've always had.

Starting early gives you room to breathe. Time to see what's out there, compare your options, and understand what actually suits your situation now, not when you first took the mortgage out.

A new deal isn't just about chasing the lowest rate either. Fees, term length, and monthly payments all play a part.

Life changes. Income, circumstances, plans, they all shift, and that can affect what's available to you.

The good news? You may be able to sort a new deal before your current one even ends.

Don't leave it to the last minute. Speak to us early and make the whole thing far less stressful. 🏡

Your home may be repossessed if you do not keep up repayments on your mortgage.

You may have to pay an early repayment charge to your existing lender if you remortgage
