Hello, and welcome back to the Mortgage Mum podcast with Sarah Tucker.
In this episode, we are going to be doing some questions and answers again, which worked really well in our previous episode.
This time we are covering the topic of high net worth mortgages, which can sometimes fall into specialist finance. As you may or may not have seen, we've recently launched The Mortgage Mum Specialist Finance as its own company and It’s headed up by myself and Shelley Walker, who’s managing director of that business.
We would love to do another episode in the future with Shelley as part of the specialist finance podcast. But for now, we want to answer your questions.
We've had lots of them about how high net worth can be factored in differently for mortgages, so hopefully we cover them all for you on today’s episode.

“Demystifying the million pound mortgage”
Welcome to this month’s episode of The Mortgage Mum podcast. This month’s episode is hosted by two of our expert mortgage brokers, Kim Balasubramaniam and Katrina Horsted.
With backgrounds in high-end events and luxury fashion, Kim and Katrina are well versed in dealing with discerning, high net worth clients.
In this episode they discuss the million pound mortgage; why you might need one, how to get one and how working with a broker in this space is vital.
Kim and Katrina discuss the need for million pound mortgages, both in the residential, buy-to-let and development sectors, particularly for those families wishing to move to their forever homes.
They talk through affordability considerations; for those clients with complex incomes, background investments and illiquid assets and how different lenders take these elements into consideration.
Katrina shares the types of mortgages available for larger loan sizes and the considerations that should be given to each, and Kim discusses the various repayment options available.
Finally, the pair share how working with a broker in this space is vital both to save the client time, and to lean on their expertise and relationships with lenders and their specialist larger lending teams to ensure a smooth journey to completion of that million pound mortgage and forever home.

Welcome to April’s episode, where guest host Gemma Bennett, Senior Broker at The Mortgage Mum, takes time to discuss getting mortgage ready when you have a fixed term, temporary or zero hours employment contract.
Being employed doesn’t look the same for everyone and if you have an employment contract that isn’t considered permanent, you may need to consider a few extra elements to help lenders understand your current and future income, when it comes to applying for a mortgage.
Since working in the mortgage industry Gemma has seen just how varied lenders are in their approaches to contract workers and uses this podcast episode to give you an overview of things to consider and how to get yourself in the best position.
Essentially it comes down to offering the lenders as much evidenced security of your income levels as we can. We do this by looking both back at your recent employment history and forward when it comes to non permanent contracted employment.
Gemma hopes she can shed some light on what’s required and what is most helpful if you’re in this position. Please don’t hesitate to ask any questions.

In our new episode on The Mortgage Mum Podcast, we are joined by three of our Mortgage Mums - Sally Mitchell (Senior Mortgage Broker and Business Manager), Katrina Horstead (Mortgage Broker) and Kim Balasubramaniam (Senior Mortgage Broker).
Each with a very different story, Sally, Katrina and Kim talk through their unique back stories including how they became Mortgage Brokers and how they landed their roles at The Mortgage Mum. They talk about their background, how they discovered The Mortgage Mum, getting qualified and more. They talk about how being a mortgage broker is a true "human" job, listening to real people and understanding their circumstances. It's beyond numbers, it's interesting and exciting.
Proving that you don't have to have a background in Financial Services, we hope their inspiring journeys can show that you can create a flexible work and life balance as a broker. Not all of our brokers are parents, but those that are, make this career work around their families.
Mortgage brokers are a huge part of anyone's property-purchase. The Mortgage Mum brokers specifically are there every step of the way. They build real relationships and their invaluable life experience really shapes the much needed positive, patient, kind and empathetic attitude the mortgage industry needs, all of which we believe contributes to being a successful mortgage broker.
If you feel inspired by this episode and Sally, Katrina and Kim's stories, and are interested in becoming a mortgage broker, or whether you are already a broker and want to find out more about being a broker at The Mortgage Mum, then please check out our course: Your Complete Guide To Becoming A Mortgage Broker. Hosted by our founders, Sarah Tucker and Jamie Lewis, this course covers getting the qualifications you need, learning how to get your own leads, branding your business and everything in between.

Gemma wants to put both areas of experience and knowledge together, to help her fellow self-employed applicants be as prepared and empowered as possible when it comes to their mortgage needs.

Welcome to the August episode of The Mortgage Mum Podcast. This month Kim Balasubramaniam, one of our Senior Mortgage Brokers is guest hosting the podcast and welcomes interior designer Sophie Robinson to the show.
Sophie has enjoyed a long and creative career as a TV presenter, podcaster, journalist, stylist and designer with over two decades of experience in the interiors and media industry. You will recognise her from TV shows such as DIY SOS and most recently the BBC’s Interior Design Masters. Sophie is well known for her love of colour and pattern and is on a mission to ban the beige! Her brand is about so much more than interior design though; it’s about giving others the inspiration, know-how and confidence to be creative in their own home, and in an affordable way at that.
In this episode we talk through Sophie’s own journey with redesigning and renovating her family home; a tile hung cottage in the countryside that has undergone quite the transformation in the last few years.
Sophie shares her super useful tips for space planning like a pro, how to view the layout of a property when house hunting, and how simply changing the function of spaces can have a huge impact on how you live in your home.
We discuss how the age-old adage of keeping everything neutral won’t actually add the most value to your home, and how carefully chosen interiors can actually do the opposite.
Sophie shares her top tips for injecting colour and personality into your home design to create a joyous space that works for you and your family, and how this has been proven to have a direct impact on our wellbeing.
Finally we hear about her exciting future plans, and how her kitchen design was inspired by her new wallpaper collection.
To find out more about Sophie’s work, you can follow her on Instagram @sophierobinsoninteriors listen to The Great Indoors Podcast on your favourite podcast player or visit her website at sophierobinson.co.uk to find out more about her online courses and in-person workshops.

Welcome to May’s episode, where guest host Gemma Bennett, Senior Broker at The Mortgage Mum is joined by Abigail Foster founder and CEO of Elent Financial Education.
Abi is an ACA chartered accountant and having recognised a severe gap in financial literacy within the workplace became passionate about doing what she can to amend this through relatable and easy to understand practical financial education, delivered through workshops in schools, universities and workplaces.
This led to the creation of ELENT. Gemma and Abi discuss the importance of better financial education and how Abi is assisting in bridging this gap for so many.
Her passion and drive to eradicate the gender pay gap and what she’s doing to inform the younger generations of the future workforce, with better conversations around finances.
Gemma discovered Abi on social media when recognising, from conversations with many clients and peers, that a need for a better financial education system is required and started wondering what was out there.
Stumbling across Abi with her tagline, ‘the financial education you wish you had learnt at school,’ Gemma knew she had found the person she was looking for.
Abi, posts creative, vibrant and energetic content on her socials that’s relatable and practical for all. Even elements such as understanding your payslip are so important and let’s be honest, so many people don’t, yet don’t admit this.
Our finances are part of our everyday and yet fluid conversations around our Pay, Tax, Pensions and Mortgages are still not the norm. Adequate comprehension around these elements of life is often not at the level it should be.
As a result, people feel disempowered or overwhelmed. This should not be the case! You shouldn’t have to be a financial professional to understand your day to day finances. Better conversations and education is important as we empower ourselves to take charge of such elements.
Money is part of everyone’s life and therefore cannot be a ‘taboo’ subject and must be spoken about. Abi is a truly fascinating and interesting woman and her intellect and passion is so infectious as she talks about her inspirations and goals with Elent.
We really hope you enjoy this episode and watch out for the launch of Abi’s online financial education platform coming soon!
