Be wary of fraudIdentity fraud is on the increase and can seriously damage your credit score. This is another reason to check your credit file regularly: in the searches section particularly, you should examine it to see if there's any which you don't recognise (double-check with the named lender). If you think you've become a victim of identity fraud, you should report this to Action Fraud. |
Help to Buy MortgageIf you take up the Government's Help to Buy Scheme to buy a New Build home, the Government provides up to 20% of the purchase price in the form of a repayable equity loan (up to 40% within the Greater London area) to add to your 5% deposit then you pay for the rest of the asking price via a Help to Buy Mortgage. This mortgage will therefore be for a maximum of 75% of the purchase price (55% in Greater London) and the maximum purchase price is £600,000. Want to find out more? Click on Help to Buy Mortgages |

Birmingham Mortgage Broker Insider Tips
Get all your signed documentation to your solicitor in advance, if you want to give yourself more chance of a faster conveyancing process in Birmingham.
Your conveyancing solicitor can't exchange contracts with the other side until they receive your mortgage deed, transfer deed, signed contract and so on. Originals of these documents, or at least some originals may be required by your solicitor and if so, you may need to post them.
It's a good idea, if you have to use Royal Mail, to send as much correspondence as you can together and make sure to use recorded delivery. This way, the documents can be tracked and you can find out when your mail was received and who signed for it. This is never best left to chance - you might lose your documents, which will slow down your conveyancing considerably and you will have to wait for replacements, into the bargain.
FREE Online Conveyancing Process for Buyers
Includes online checklists, videos, downloads and tips - plus it is completely free to use from start to finish and saves your progress along the way.
