v THE NEXT HERALD IS OUT ON 21ST APRIL v 31st March 2022 • The HERALD • Page 61 SAFE AS HOUSES ON THE WATERSIDE Mortgages are one of those topics that rarely get discussed until you need one, and as a rst-time buyer the ‘mortgage world’ can feel daunting, with a mine eld of information. Luckily Leanne Maguire, from Waterside Mortgages in Hythe is on hand to guide you through every step and source the perfect mortgage for you. Having spent 22 years working in nancial services, with the last 9 year’s specialising as a Mortgage Advisor, Leanne is highly experienced in the mortgage application process. Whether it’s buying a property, re-mortgaging, shared ownership, or perhaps it’s an investment property, a HMO’s (houses in multiple occupation, licenced and un-licenced) or buy to let mortgage - whatever the need, you can rest assured that Waterside Mortgages will search all options to nd you the most suitable mortgage, tailored to your individual needs and circumstances. As an independent Mortgage Advisor Leanne is only ever guided by getting the right deal for you and this means Waterside Mortgages work on a ‘no client fee’ basis as costs are recouped directly from the mortgage provider. As a local lady and busy mum of two Leanne is a familiar face to many. With her black book of contacts and access to the entire market Leanne decided during lockdown to take the leap and set up on her own. In September 2021, Leanne knew the only place Waterside Mortgages would really feel at home was on the waterside. So to the sound of the pier train Leanne moved into an o ce in Hotspur House and it’s been plain sailing ever since. Leanne will also walk you through various insurance options, explaining: “When arranging your mortgage, we’ll also take time to review the protection you have in place. We can recommend solutions to make sure you and your family maintain their financial stability, should the worst happen. We can arrange cover that will provide either a lump sum or regular income should you become seriously ill, or in the event of your death. Along with House Insurance we can organise Life Insurance, Critical Illness Cover, Income Protection, Family Income Benefit and Accident & Sickness Insurance.” With appointments available in person, over the telephone or via Zoom you have the exibility to get the right mortgage and the right time for you.
