Review of the Vernon Building Society, Mortgages:

complex income mortgage

5
We managed to use income projections from a client towards affordability, as the client had seen a large uplift in income year on year since covid, which was very bespoke and managed to get us where we needed to be Reviewed on: 13th March 2023

So easy to deal with

5
We almost lost the house that we were hoping to buy because the bank we approached for a mortgage was so slow. The Vernon stepped into the breach and processed our mortgage at lightening speed, meaning that we did not loose our purchase. The Vernon’s mortgage team could not be more helpful, and we have no hesitation in recommending them to others. Reviewed on: 13th April 2021

A real lifeline

At an age when most no longer had mortgages, circumstances meant we needed one. We were dealt with professionally, sympathetically and efficiently. What more can one ask for? Reviewed on: 13th April 2021
