Specialist Schemes
Specialist schemes are schemes that are associated with your mortgage with the common aim of helping you to purchase your home.
​
Where do I start with specialist schemes?
Specialist schemes often sound more complex than they actually are. From the Forces Help to Buy scheme to Retirement Interest Only mortgages, our advisors can help you understand what scheme, if any, is best for your circumstances.
​

Specialist Mortgage FAQs
Do I have to be a first time buyer to get a mortgage scheme?
​
Not necessarily, there are schemes that are specifically aimed at First Time Buyers, like the First Homes scheme, but many of the schemes can be utilised by previous home owners and first time buyers alike. If you're interested in using a scheme to buy your property, your mortgage adviser will be able to find out your eligibility and talk you through the options available to you.
​
Do all lenders accept these schemes?
​
One of the main advantages of using a mortgage adviser is that they will find the best mortgage product for your circumstances. This means that they scour the whole of the market to ensure they find a lender, who accepts the scheme with the best terms for you.
