Older Client? No problem!

13 Feb 2020

Do you have clients who were turned down by high street lenders simply because of their age?

At the Family Building Society, later life lending is our specialist subject. We won't turn down clients just because of their age and strive to help when other lenders can't or won't just because it's too complicated.

What makes us so different?

  • We don't use computers. We use common sense and real human beings to underwrite your mortgages cases. We'll listen to your clients' stories and make an assessment based on the merits of each individual case.
  • We lend in retirement and do so with generous terms:
    • Owner Occupier repayment mortgages - up to a maximum age of 95 at the end of term.
    • Owner Occupier Buy to Let mortgages - up to a maximum age of 89 when the loan commences.
We take into account earned income up to the age of 70 and other sources of income beyond that such as pension, investment and rental income. Other income can be considered on a case-by-case basis.
