Hello November 🍂✨
A month we love a little extra here at The Mortgage Pride.

Yes, it’s all about bonfires, cosy layers, autumn leaves and longer nights… but it’s also the month Steven and Laura first met and later said “I do” (not the same year though 😅💍).

Does November bring you special memories too? Tell us in the comments 👇🏻❤️

💫 Another happy client one step closer to collecting the keys to their new family home! 🏡🗝️

When buying your dream home feels out of reach, having the right support can make all the difference. Our trusted mortgage planning service has helped another couple navigate their complex financial circumstances and secure the mortgage offer they thought was not possible. 🎉

💬 Here’s what our clients had to say in our latest 5🌟 Google Review:

“We went to The Mortgage Pride with little hope of being able to move to our forever home. Some tricky financial circumstances surrounded us but Steven and Laura worked through all the fine details and explained everything step by step in order to help us secure that mortgage offer we had dreamed of. Each step was explained thoroughly and very flexible meeting times were offered. Both myself and my husband work full time so evening video calls were always available. We look forward to continuing to work with The Mortgage Pride in the rest of our home move journey and beyond.”

Thank you Rachel and Chris for trusting us to be part of such an exciting chapter! We look forward to supporting you throughout the rest of your home move journey and beyond. 💛

🦁💛 Meet The Mortgage Pride — AKA Team Lyons! 🦁

We’ve had lots of new followers recently (hello & welcome! 👋🏻), so we thought it was the perfect time to re-introduce ourselves!

Tonight, we’re shining the spotlight on Steven Lyons – the King of our Pride! 👑🦁

If there’s one thing to know about Steven, it’s that he lives and breathes mortgages (no exaggeration!). With over 20 years of experience, he has helped thousands of people with their mortgage and insurance needs. His favourite part of the job? Hearing the excitement in a client’s voice on completion day when they get the keys to their dream home. 🏡✨

Steven has a wealth of experience in the mortgage world after working as a mortgage adviser in a bank, a building society, and as a broker in an estate agency. This means he understands the home-buying journey inside out and knows exactly how to make it smoother, clearer and stress-free for you.

Although he supports clients across the UK, his passion is helping local people in Stoke-on-Trent and Staffordshire access friendly, professional and convenient mortgage advice. 💛

🏡 Steven’s Top Mortgage Tip:
Before you start browsing properties, speak to a whole-of-market mortgage adviser like The Mortgage Pride. It saves you time, stress and disappointment — and helps you understand exactly what you can afford. ✅

⏰ When I’m not helping clients…
You’ll usually find Steven:
🐶 Play-fighting with the family Cavalier King Charles Spaniel, Harley.
🚕 Being Dad-Taxi to and from dance classes for his daughter, Ella.
🛠️ Attempting to fix previous DIY projects… (with mixed results 😅)

🏆 My Biggest Achievement:
“Without a doubt — launching The Mortgage Pride with my wife, Laura.” 💛

At The Mortgage Pride, we understand that mortgages and insurance can be daunting especially with all the terminology you may see.

Our aim is to make it less daunting by using simple and jargon-free language. One way we do this is by providing you with our weekly jargon-buster. This week we focus on tracker mortgages.

Do you have a driving licence❓

When was the last time you checked the expiry date on your photocard❓

As well as your it being a legal requirement if you drive, your driving licence is a key document for both proof of address and photo ID so don’t be caught out by letting it expire.

Your photograph needs updating every 10 years and we have noticed recently an increase in the number of driving licences having expired and our clients being unaware.

So regardless of whether you are thinking of applying for a mortgage or not, take the opportunity to check the expiry date on yours so you don’t get caught out.

❓WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOUR MORTGAGE DEAL ENDS❓

If you don’t arrange a new mortgage deal before your current one comes to an end, you will naturally move onto your mortgage lender’s standard variable rate.

This is also known as their SVR.

❓WHAT IS SVR❓

This is your mortgage lender’s own interest rate.

Often this can be higher than other deals available meaning that your mortgage payments often increase or you will pay more in the long run than possibly switching to a new mortgage deal.

Because the SVR is set by your mortgage lender, it can go up or down at any time. This can make it difficult for you to budget as your mortgage payments can go up or down.

❓CAN YOU AVOID GOING ONTO THE STANDARD VARIABLE RATE❓

The good news is that you can avoid going onto the standard variable rate when your current mortgage deal ends by being prepared.

Some mortgage lenders will allow you to reserve a new mortgage deal up to 6 months before your existing one finishes.

This means that your new mortgage deal can be ready to switch to when your current one ends and hopefully avoid any surprises.

We recommend that you start to explore your options at the earliest possibility. On average, a re-mortgage can take 6-8 weeks depending on your circumstances.

*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.
