Supporting our Armed Forces

Helping our hero's home

We are proud to have signed the Armed Forces Covenant, pledging our commitment to fair treatment and support of the Armed Forces community, including regulars, reserves, veterans and their families.  

We have achieved the prestigious Silver Award from the Defence Employer Recognition Scheme (ERS), which recognises our commitment to members of the Armed Forces, past and present, and their families. 

Your Home offers a gradual homeownership solution that can be used on any pre-owned freehold home in England, bringing the possibility of home ownership to an area that you may already be established in.

To assist armed forces personal, Your Home is compatible with the MOD Future Accommodation Model and Forces Help to Buy schemes and as an extra helping hand the lease allows service personnel who are posted to sublet their entire property for the duration of their deployment, if their lender agrees. We also provide £500 towards legal fees when service personnel purchase a home with Your Home. 

We believe that everyone should have the opportunity to benefit from home ownership, and we look forward to further extending our support to the Armed Forces community in future.

Army Staff Sergeant uses Heylo to buy her first home

"It’s brilliant – the scheme is very straightforward and easy to understand, and I love the flexibility it gives me to buy more shares in my home in future.”...I already own half of my home and I definitely plan to buy more shares in time. It’s great to be able to do this at my own pace, when I can afford to do so...

I feel like I’ve got a whole new lease of life. Owning my home makes me feel much more secure, and has given me so much more independence. I’m much more settled and happier now which is great – I’m going to be posted here for at least three years, so I wanted to put down roots and step onto the ladder.”
