The Nest is a clear, no-jargon podcast about mortgages, homeownership and getting truly “mortgage ready”.
Hosted by advisers from Heron Financial, a fee-free, B Corp certified mortgage and protection brokerage, each episode breaks down a specific topic in plain English: from saving a deposit and improving your affordability, to navigating new build, shared ownership, remortgaging and protection.
Whether you are a first-time buyer, an existing homeowner planning your next move, or simply trying to make sense of rates and lender criteria, The Nest is here to make the process calmer and easier.
No hype, no hard sell. Just practical guidance, real scenarios and actions you can take to move closer to owning – or keeping – the home that is right for you.
