From first-time buyers to seasoned property professionals and everything in between, we’re your one-stop shop. Whether you need a mortgage, life insurance, income protection or cover to safeguard your home and family — we’ve got you covered. Here’s a list of some of our services:
Buying your first home is a significant milestone, but understanding mortgage options can be overwhelming. At Strive Mortgages, we specialize in first-time buyer mortgages, ensuring you access the best rates and deals available. From helping you determine affordability to guiding you through the application and approval process, our mortgage advisors make homeownership more achievable. We also help you explore government schemes and lender incentives designed to support first-time buyers in securing an affordable mortgage.
Moving home is a big decision, and choosing the right mortgage is just as important as finding the perfect property. At Strive Mortgages, we help home movers explore all available mortgage options, whether that means porting your existing mortgage or securing a new, more competitive deal. Whether you’re upsizing, downsizing, or relocating for work, our mortgage advisors handle the entire mortgage process, ensuring a smooth transition to your next home.
If your current mortgage deal is ending, or you want to release equity from your property, remortgaging could be the right option. At Strive Mortgages, we compare thousands of mortgage products across the market to find lower interest rates, improved terms, and more flexible repayment options. Whether you want to reduce your monthly payments, consolidate debts, or switch lenders, our expert mortgage brokers will find the most suitable remortgage deal for your needs, saving you time and money.
We work with first-time and portfolio landlords to help them secure finance for their next property deal. Buy-to-let mortgage affordability criteria is more stringent than ever, putting a strain on rental margins. Our team of experienced buy-to-let mortgage advisers will assess your financial situation and goals to come up with a solution, including purchasing properties through a Limited Company to offset mortgage interest costs.
Being self-employed shouldn’t be a barrier to homeownership. Traditional lenders often have strict criteria, making it difficult for freelancers, contractors, and business owners to secure a mortgage. At Strive Mortgages, we specialize in self-employed mortgage solutions, working with lenders who understand complex income structures. Whether you have fluctuating earnings, dividend income, or limited trading history, we’ll help you secure a mortgage tailored to your financial circumstances.
If you’re looking to rent out your current property while purchasing a new home, a let-to-buy mortgage can help you make that transition. This option allows you to keep your existing home as a rental property while securing a new mortgage for your next purchase. Our experienced mortgage brokers will guide you through lender criteria, affordability checks, and rental yield considerations to ensure you secure the right mortgage while maximizing your investment potential.
A mortgage is a long-term financial responsibility, and protecting yourself and your loved ones is essential. At Strive Mortgages, we offer expert advice on mortgage protection, including life insurance, critical illness cover, and income protection. Our advisors help you find the right policies to safeguard your home and finances, providing peace of mind that your mortgage is covered in the event of unexpected life changes.
