REMORTGAGING
If your current mortgage deal is ending or you’re looking to improve your financial situation, our team can help you explore suitable remortgaging options.
Our experienced mortgage advisers will assess your current deal, understand your goals, and compare a wide range of lenders to find a more competitive rate or terms that meet your needs.

SHARED OWNERSHIP
Shared ownership can be a great way to get onto the property ladder if you can’t afford to buy a home outright. With this scheme, you buy a portion of the home — typically between 25% and 75% — and pay rent on the remaining share.
We are here to help you understand how shared ownership works and guide you through the application process. Assess your financial situation, explain eligibility criteria, and compare suitable mortgage options from a range of lenders.
Whether you’re a first-time buyer or looking for a more affordable route to homeownership, we’ll support you with clear advice and tailored solutions designed to help you move forward with confidence.

LIFE & SERIOUS ILLNESS INSURANCE
Protecting your home and your loved ones is just as important as securing the right mortgage.
At AMP Mortgages & Protection, we offer expert advice on life insurance and serious illness cover to help you safeguard your finances against unexpected events. These protection policies can provide a financial safety net, ensuring your mortgage and other essential costs are covered if you pass away or are diagnosed with a critical illness.
Our advisers work with a range of trusted insurers to find cover that aligns with your needs, giving you peace of mind for whatever life may bring.
INCOME PROTECTION
Your income is one of your most valuable assets — and protecting it is key to maintaining your lifestyle and meeting financial commitments like your mortgage. Our team offers tailored advice on income protection insurance, designed to provide regular payments if you’re unable to work due to a specific illness or injury.
This type of cover can help you stay on top of bills, household costs, and other essential expenses during uncertain times. Our experienced advisers will guide you through available options, helping you choose a policy that supports your financial stability and gives you added peace of mind.
LATER LIFE LENDING
Later Life Lending allows you to unlock some of the value tied up in your home, either as a lump sum or through regular payments, without the need to sell or move.
This can be a useful way to supplement your retirement income, clear existing debts, or fund major expenses like home improvements.
Because Later Life lending is a long-term financial commitment and not suitable for everyone, it’s important to seek expert advice. Our team at AMP Mortgages & Protection will explain how Later Life Lending works and help you decide if it aligns with your financial needs and future plans.
A lifetime mortgage is not suitable for everyone and may affect your entitlement to means tested benefits, so it is important to seek financial advice before taking any action. If you are considering releasing equity from your home, you should consider all options available before equity release.
The interest that may be accrued over the long term with a Lifetime Mortgage, may mean it is not the cheapest solution. As interest is charged on both the original loan and the interest that has been added, the amount you owe will increase over time, reducing the equity left in your home and the value of any inheritance, potentially to nothing.
Although the final decision is yours, you are encouraged to discuss your plans with your family and beneficiaries, as a Lifetime Mortgage could have an impact on any potential inheritance. We would also encourage you to invite them to join any meetings with your Financial Adviser so they can ask questions and join in the decision, as we believe it is better to discuss your decision with them before you go ahead.
