Secure your legacy
If you own property, then you really should have a Will, Make sure your loved ones are protected and your last wishes honoured.
Do you need a Will when getting a mortgage?
Legally - no.
However, buying a property is one of the biggest milestones we reach in life — but it’s also one of the most overlooked moments when it comes to planning for the future.
So, while you may be asking yourself do I really need a Will just because I’ve bought a house?
The answer is simple - yes.
Let us guide you through the process
What happens if you don’t have a Will?
Most people just assume that their assets will naturally pass on to their spouse or children — but the legal reality can be very different depending on your personal circumstances.
If you die without a Will, which is known as dying intestate, the law decides how your assets are distributed. Here’s what could happen without a valid Will in place:
• Your children might inherit ahead of your spouse, which could cause issues.
• Your partner could receive nothing if you are not married or in a civil partnership.
• Joint bank accounts could be frozen - regardless if your partner relies on them for bills.
• Family disputes and delays can often arise.
• It is the government, and not you, who decides where your hard work goes.
Your home is likely to be your biggest financial asset. Not protecting it with a Will can lead to unnecessary complications, costs, and stress for your loved ones that can be avoided with a little bit of time and forethought.

Death is the on true certainty in life - make sure you have a Will in place to protect your loved ones when it happens.
