Whether you want to know how much you can afford to borrow on a mortgage, or what your current home could sell for, our buying advice tools are here to help.

How much can I afford?
The Affordability Calculator gives an estimate of the amount you would be able to borrow from a mortgage lender. You can also then choose to speak to a mortgage advisor for tailored advice on the next steps to buying your new home.

Value my home
The Valuation Tool gives you a guide on your current home’s value ready for when you put it on the market, so you have an idea what equity you would have when buying your next home. You can then use our Part Exchange or Assisted Selling Plan schemes to let us quickly and easily sell your home, so you can relax and enjoy buying your new one. 

A bespoke selling plan for homeowners

The Assisted Selling Plan is designed to help homeowners climb the property ladder. As part of the scheme, we will organise the sale of your existing home, making sure you receive the best possible price. This will allow you to reserve your new home with us.

We will create a personal selling plan, including a review of the property market in your area and an agreed sale price for your home based on two independent valuations.

We will work closely with the nominated estate agent to arrange all viewings and enquiries. All offers will be presented to you, and our Customer Experience Manager will guide you through the negotiation process. 

Once you accept an offer we will track the sale of your home, while you start planning for your brand new one. If your chosen home is ready within a four-month period, we may offer to buy your existing home in part exchange.

Part Exchange. If we profit, so do you.

Choose our Part Exchange Package and you’ll receive:
 
• 50% of any profit we make when we sell your old home
• Independent and transparent valuations
• No estate agent fees or hassle
• A long weekend to move
• £1000 towards your removal costs
• Professional house clean when you’ve moved out
