Pay all your bills on time

Late payments, even if only by a few days, can affect your credit rating negatively

Wherever you can, set up automatic repayments via direct debit and standing order. Make sure you make at least the minimum repayment where relevant and if applicable.

Joint Borrower Sole Proprietor Mortgage

Joint borrower sole proprietor mortgages enable mortgage applicants who do not have the affordability to get a mortgage on their own to team up with someone who is able to get a mortgage to secure the appropriate loan, then the latter person does not appear on the legal title.

It is advisable to draw up a deed of trust to protect each individual party's financial interest when buying a house in this way.

Maidstone Mortgage Broker Insider Tips

If you're buying, getting a structural assessment (Building Survey) of your property in Maidstone from a RICS Surveyor is key and can save you £1,000s by highlighting defects that can be shared or negotiated with the seller. 

All too often buyers choose to not get a Building Survey thinking that their Mortgage Valuation will cover them for this. Sadly the mortgage valuation doesn't highlight structural defects or risks.

Once you realise this and then choose to get a Building Survey you may find that you are pushed to get this done in time for exchange of contracts because you have waited so long. This is especially annoying as your conveyancing solicitor needs some of the information from the survey to complete your legal work.

The best advice for fast conveyancing in Maidstone is to book your Building Survey at the same time as you instruct your conveyancing solicitor. 

Surveyors are in high demand at the moment and bookings can often take 7 to 10 days and then the report 3 to 5 days after that so the sooner you book, the quicker you'll know if there are any defects with you property - plus you'll be set for a fast conveyancing completion!
