How can I make sure my financial plan is sustainable for the long term?

Financial planning should include a long-term vision to ensure any decisions you make today will be most suitable and beneficial over the following months, years and even decades. When accessing financial planning services, it is best to disclose your long-term goals, such as buying investment properties, starting businesses and even personal decisions like starting a family.

A

There are many products that allow you to save money and earn interest, such as fixed-term bonds, ISAs, Stocks and Shares ISAs, and a myriad of investment products. Each comes with different levels of risk exposure, which should be considered before opting into any product. This can be discussed at length with our recommended savings and investment advisers.

Q

How can I make sure my financial plan is updated as my circumstances change?

Although your initial financial plan may have accounted for your long-term milestones and important events, life can also be full of surprises. The best way to ensure your current plan is still suitable is to book regular financial planning consultations with your adviser. They may be able to recommend changes that could offer significant benefits in the years to follow.

Case study

From reservation to completion in 6 days

Client background: Time was the biggest challenge on this case. The client initially reserved, and had a mortgage offer on, a property due for completion in March but was then given the opportunity to purchase the original plot they had enquired about. The client was desperate to move before Christmas, which meant that we had 6 days to get them from reservation to completion.

The challenges:

  1. To get the best rate, a new mortgage application needed submitting. The client had a large amount of variable income. 
  2. The client reserved on Sunday 17th December and completion was set for Friday 22nd December.

What we did:

  1. The client worked in retail, so their shift pattern varied on the run up to Christmas. To enable the client to fit the appointment into their busy schedule and to avoid delay, we booked them in with a Mortgage Adviser on Monday 18th December at 8am. 
  2. Due to the client’s affordability, we didn’t need to use any of their variable income on the application. This meant that after the new application was submitted that morning, we were able to auto verify the income with the lender and get the case agreed on the same day. 
  3. As soon as the application was submitted, the case was referred to Senior Management to contact the lender. The valuation was instructed immediately but wouldn’t have normally taken place until the Thursday due to the site opening times. After a phone call to the builder, we managed to get a staff member on site the following day so the valuation could take place on the Tuesday. 
  4. As soon as the valuation took place, the site let us know and we were able to get the offer issued the same day. 
  5. As the client had opted to use the builder’s panel solicitor, we were able to liaise with them directly, meaning the request for completion was submitted to the lender that evening.  

To wrap it up: This case highlights the speed and efficiency of the work we do - there was no room for error. By having a flexible team, we were able to accommodate the client’s requirement for an early morning appointment, and due to the Mortgage Adviser quickly identifying that basic salary alone was required for the application, the lender needed limited documentation. This in turn meant that the lender was able to agree the case on the very same day the application was submitted. Due to our relationship with both the lender and the builder, we were able to facilitate the valuation being booked in for the following day, even though the site was closed. All of this resulted in a very happy client being in their new home in time for Christmas!

We were able to accommodate the client’s requirement.
