Manda Mortgage Coach

💭 A thought after a client question this morning…

A mortgage client asked me today how mortgages actually work — and what the mortgage process really looks like.

It stopped me in my tracks, because it made me realise how rarely this is asked.

Not because people understand it…
but because it’s treated as assumed knowledge.

Most first-time buyers don’t ask these questions because they feel like they should already know. So instead, they stay quiet, nod along, and hope they’ll work it out as they go.

But mortgages are a huge financial commitment — and no one should feel uncomfortable asking how the process works or what the language means.

That’s exactly why I’ve added new resources to the GMR Knowledge Hub
www.skool.com/gmrclub
today:
• how mortgages work
• the mortgage jargon explained
• the mortgage process, step by step

So you can learn the language, understand the flow, and feel confident having these conversations — without feeling awkward or behind.

If you’ve ever felt unsure but didn’t know what to ask, you’re not alone 💛

Most first-time buyers focus on one circle and wonder why things don’t work.

Real progress happens in the middle:
✔ Deposit strategy
✔ Credit building
✔ Understanding the buying process

That’s exactly what GMR Club is built for.

Manda Mortgage Coach

When I bought my first home at 22, I wish someone had told me:
• What options were actually out there for First-Time Buyers
• How to prepare your income, deposit, and credit for mortgage approval
• That there’s more than just “save 10% and hope for the best”

That’s exactly why I created the Get Mortgage Ready: First-Time Buyer workshop – happening tonight.

Whether you’re hoping to buy in 6 months or next year, this workshop walks you through:
• The real FTB mortgage options available right now
• What lenders are really looking for
• And how to build a plan that works for your income, goals, and timeline

Doors close later today – join here:

Feel confident. Be mortgage ready.
I’ll see you tonight!

Manda Mortgage Coach

Buying your first home in 2025? Let’s make sure you do it with clarity, confidence – and no costly mistakes.

This value-packed workshop is for serious first-time buyers who want to get mortgage ready, understand all their options, and make smart decisions. For just £47, you’ll get expert guidance, live coaching, and tools to help you move from confused to confident.

⸻

Why Attend This Workshop?

Because you deserve advice that’s clear, personal, and based on experience – not TikTok myths or outdated blogs.

I’m running this live 60-minute session on 14th [Month] at 7:00pm, especially for first-time buyers who want to:
• Understand their mortgage options without jargon
• Discover the best routes to buying with 5–10% deposits
• Use tools like the LISA or Shared Ownership wisely
• Know what lenders really want to see
• Be in a stronger position when viewing properties
• Avoid unnecessary delays, mistakes, or rejections

⸻

What You’ll Learn – and Why It Matters

1. Your Mortgage Options Explained Simply

Fixed or variable? 2-year or 5-year? Interest-only or repayment?
We’ll cut through the jargon and show you what these really mean for your budget and future plans.

2. How Much You Could Borrow

You’ll get a behind-the-scenes look at how banks calculate what you can afford – and what could quietly reduce your borrowing power.

3. Deposits, Gifted Funds & Joint Borrowers

We’ll talk about minimum deposits, springboard options, JBSP (Joint Borrower Sole Proprietor), and the Bank of Mum & Dad – what works, what’s allowed, and what could cause delays.

4. What Schemes Are Available in 2025?

We’ll cover key schemes including:
• Shared Ownership
• First Homes Scheme
• Lifetime ISA (LISA)
• Guarantor & family-backed mortgages
• Key worker schemes (where applicable)

5. Mortgage Prep That Saves Time & Money

You’ll leave knowing how to boost your approval odds, improve your credit standing, and avoid the common errors that lead to delays or declines.

⸻

Who’s This Workshop For?
• Solo buyers or couples planning to buy within 6–18 months
• Anyone using or planning to use a LISA
• Those exploring Shared Ownership or part-buy/part-rent
• Buyers who’ve been turned down before
• People just starting to explore the buying process and want clarity
• Those with parental support or joint mortgage plans

⸻

Why This Isn’t Free – and Why That’s a Good Thing

This is a value-packed paid workshop for £47, because I want committed attendees who are serious about buying a home. You’ll walk away with real knowledge, tangible steps and confidence to move forward.

Free webinars often lead to half-baked advice, vague promises or a sales pitch.
This isn’t that.

This is practical, focused, no-fluff guidance from someone who does this every day.

⸻

What You’ll Walk Away With:
• Clarity on your borrowing power and mortgage options
• Confidence to ask the right questions to agents, brokers, and solicitors
• Strategy for deposit planning and scheme eligibility
• A replay link to rewatch and share
• A First-Time Buyer checklist
• A downloadable mortgage jargon glossary
• The option to book a discounted 1:1 strategy session with me after the event
