Helping Our Armed Forces Buy Their Own Home

Helping Our Armed Forces Buy Their Own Home

Off By Ed Hanna

With the news that the Forces Help to Buy scheme has been extended to 2018, comes the real promise of increased home ownership for members of our Armed Forces. This valuable scheme coupled with the Armed Forces Covenant has the potential to change lives for many families.

The Armed Forces Covenant has specific benefits related to home ownership. For example, mortgage providers who are members of the Covenant have agreed that if you’re posted overseas you’ll be able to rent out your home without facing higher mortgage costs or having to change your mortgage.

The Loughborough is an award-winning building society based in the East Midlands and we’re proud to be committed to the Armed Forces Covenant. Treating people as individuals is what we do, so when it comes to mortgages we don’t make lending decisions by credit scoring on a computer. We’ll talk to you one to one so we can understand your individual needs.

We offer mortgages for up to 95% of the value of the property being purchased and have a competitive range of fixed and discounted mortgages available.

So if you’re looking for a mortgage, talk to The Loughborough.
