My grandparents opened my account when I was born and used it as a savings account. I was given the account when I was 18. I used the money to buy my first rental property. I now own 6 rentals, so without Dudley Building Society, and my grandparents, I wouldn’t have been able to achieve this.

Membership is important to me as it is enabling me to save for my son's future. His generation are going to find it even harder to do the things that my generation have done or are trying to do (buy a house, go to University etc) so that is why it is important to me.

The Dudley Building Society took the time and trouble to look at our situation in detail and agreed a 20 year repayment mortgage that allowed us to retain our home and provided a huge relief. Dealing with the Dudley is a joy. We value our Dudley Building Society membership very highly.
