Mortgage Broker Tip 1 |

Reduce any debt you are inSeems obvious of course – and always easier said than done – but this will do much more for you than simply improving your credit score. Stop using credit cards, find out all the accounts you have and determine exactly what you owe on each one and what you're being charged in terms of interest etc. Create a payment plane which directs your finances towards repaying debt on the highest interest accounts but always covering all your minimum payments. |
No Deposit MortgageNo deposit mortgages enable you to get a 100% loan to value ratio on your mortgage, i.e. the lender grants you a mortgage which covers the seller's full purchase price with no deposit required from you. These mortgages normally work by requiring an associate of yours (often a family member) to leave some money in an account for a set period of time with the account being controlled during that time by the lender. If you default on your repayments, the lender has recourse to the money in the linked account, which the associate risks losing. Another method is requiring an associate to put up their house as security in case you default. Interest rates on these products are likely to be higher than normal.

Barking Mortgage Broker Insider Tips
Selling? Consider ordering your own local authority search
- One of the conditions that a lender imposes on a buyer buying a property with a mortgage is that the buyer must purchase a local authority search. Additionally, cash buyers often buy this search for their own peace of mind.
- The local authority search takes the longest to be returned; anything from 1 week/10 days to 6 weeks and beyond sometimes.
- A seller can therefore pre-empt this by buying their own local authority search, which they can then sell onto a prospective buyer.
- They also benefit by being notified of any planning orders etc.
