Property styles and construction methods have evolved over many hundreds of years, and are continuing to do so. As a result, there are many homes out there which don’t fit the standard brick-and-tile model. Many properties are also subject to historic legal arrangements or covenants which are not so commonplace in today’s world.
This is why, at the Beverley, we pride ourselves on being open-minded and flexible, in order to make a sensible lending decision, no matter how ‘quirky’ your desired home might be.
We have lots of experience in many different forms of construction and good industry contacts who can advise where necessary. Whatever type of building you have in mind, talk to us and we’ll work hard to understand its intricacies, with a view to helping wherever we can.

Understanding that family structures are changing, we offer a range of options for those wishing to collaborate to purchase property, either to help the younger generation gain a footing on the housing ladder or support older relatives in buying a suitable home for their later years.
We accept traditional guarantors, assessing them for affordability in the same way as the borrowers themselves. We also offer joint borrower sole proprietor arrangements where you can have 2-4 applicants on the mortgage, but only the occupiers are named on the title deeds of the property. The non-occupier borrower must be able to individually afford at least 50% of the monthly payment at the affordability stress level. The primary borrower (occupier) needs to be able afford the remaining element.
Our Property Assist mortgage offers an opportunity for a parent or close family member to allow a secured charge on their home equal to 20 per cent of the purchase price, in order to obtain a 100 per cent mortgage for a first-time buyer.

We can consider a wide variety of properties that don’t conform to standard mortgage application criteria, such as homes with annexes, large acreages, or semi-commercial, mixed-use properties. Perhaps the property is of non-standard construction; a historic or grade 2 listed building, or simply one with a thatched roof. We can also look at potential conversions from architectural, industrial, religious, or even maritime structures, for example barns, warehouses, chapels, etc.
So, if you need a lender that is prepared to think outside the box, contact us to discuss your requirements and we’ll go the extra mile to help you.
We will consider income types from a variety of non-salaried sources for RIO applications, including net income from buy-to-let property, existing and projected pension payments, investments such as stocks and shares ISAs and guaranteed income from trusts.
