Buckinghamshire Building Society

The Buckinghamshire Building Society was founded in 1907 in Chalfont St Giles by a group of local businessmen, today its head office is in Chalfont St. Giles and it has a branch office in Chalfont St. Peter.

In the last seven years the Society's membership has doubled in size, and its assets have grown from £1m in 1960 to over £100m by the year 2003.

The Buckinghamshire Building Society is a mutual society and is therefore owned by its members.

The Buckinghamshire Building Society has no shareholders to pay, so it aims to provide value to existing and new members through competitive products. It has the following types of mortgages for property through England and Wales:

  • Discount
  • Tracker
  • Buy to Let

The Buckinghamshire Building Society can also help you look after yourself in case of unemployment or accident. It has two policies:

  • Mortgage Payment Protection Insurance
  • Buildings Insurance

Mortgage Payment Protection Insurance: You could lose your home if you fall behind with your mortgage repayments and cannot catch up again. But you can take steps to protect yourself against this risk by taking out a Mortgage Payment Protection Insurance.

The policy pays your monthly mortgage payment for up to 12 months if you suffer accident, sickness or unemployment.

Buildings Insurance: this is compulsory but it does not have to be taken out with the Society. The Buckinghamshire will provide you with a competitive quote for cover, either on a standard basis or with accidental damage. The annual premium will be included with your monthly mortgage repayment.
