Mortgages for Members of the Armed Forces
If you are employed by the Armed Forces, we can provide you with practical and beneficial mortgage advice.
Public Sector Mortgages advisers have a great deal of experience in helping Armed Forces personnel secure the right mortgage deals. We understand the exceptional circumstances that can make obtaining a mortgage difficult for service people.
For example, we know the lenders who will accept BFPO addresses in the same way they would a permanent address. We also know who will offer UK mortgages on residential terms, even if you are not going to reside permanently in the UK.
If you are a first-time buyer and want to get your foot on the property ladder, we can help. We can assist you by guiding you through the information on the government scheme designed ot help those serving in the Armed Forces with the costs of buying a property.
You can still take advantage of the Forces Help To Buy scheme which enables you to borrow up to half of your salary (up to £25,000) to support you with the deposit and costs of purchasing a home.
It is fundamentally an interest-free loan you must repay within ten years.
Along with the need to satisfy the more general mortgage lenders’ criteria, you will also need to meet the scheme’s specific criteria to qualify.
If you’re not eligible, you’ll be pleased to know that Public Sector Mortgages can still help. Our experienced advisers have helped many service personnel find the mortgage that’s most suitable for them and their individual set of circumstances.
If you’d like more information on whether you qualify, let us know. We’ll be more than happy to help.

What is an Armed Forces mortgage?
An Armed Forces mortgage isn’t typically just for members of the Forces. It’s a standard mortgage marketed to Armed Forces workers because it includes an interest rate discount or another benefit for Armed Forces personnel, such as cashback. You need to know where to look to take advantage of these deals, and they may not be widely advertised.
What is UK Armed Forces Help to Buy?
The UK Armed Forces Help to Buy Scheme is a permanent scheme from the government to help Armed Forces members buy a home. In a nutshell, it allows members to borrow up to 50% of their annual salary (up to £25,000) as a deposit or to cover other fees for a property purchase. The money is provided free of interest.
Who qualifies for Armed Forces Help to Buy?
To qualify for the scheme, you must meet a length of service requirement, have at least six months left to serve and meet medical requirements. Our team can help you work out if you qualify for this exclusive scheme.
Can you help if I’m deployed overseas?
Yes, we provide a remote service to help Armed Forces staff currently abroad. We even have experience in getting Armed Forces workers a residential mortgage for a property that they can rent out until they return, avoiding the need for a BTL mortgage with tougher eligibility requirements.
