As well as experienced teachers - we support a variety of education professionals including: newly qualified teachers (NQTs), teaching assistants (TAs), contract/supply teachers, nursery workers, lecturers and headteachers.
At the end of 2025 we updated our lending limits for education professionals from a previous maximum of 5x income to up to 7x income - talk to our team to find out how much you may be able to borrow based on your personal circumstances.

Three top reasons why teachers love Teachers:
Mortgages for those with small deposits
We know that saving up a deposit is really hard. That’s why we ask for a minimum deposit of just 5% to borrow from us.
Affordability
Houses are really expensive so taking even a first step on the ladder is a challenge. That’s why we lend teachers up to 7x their salary, subject to criteria and full affordability assessment.
Exclusive access to our best rates
We save our best (lowest) mortgage rates exclusively for teachers. That’s it, no tricks or twists. You get the best of what we have on offer.
Chat with Us
An initial mortgage chat with us will only last around 15 minutes and you’ll come away with a Decision in Principle (DIP) to document how much you may be able to borrow for your first home. This can all be done over the phone, and your mortgage advisor will explain the next steps following this initial call.
Your home may be repossessed if you do not keep up repayments on your mortgage
