Lower your credit utilisation ratio

The credit utilisation ratio is how much credit you've taken up as a portion of how much credit you've been offered. Your credit score will generally rise the lower this ratio is. As a general rule, you should always keep the ratio below 50% overall and considerably lower if possible.

If you have more than one credit card you should also be aware of the utilisation ratio overall and per card, because credit reference agencies take all the measure into account.

Capped Rate Mortgage

Capped rate mortgages are variable rate mortgages with an agreed cap on how high the rate – and therefore your repayments – can rise.

The rate can fall, meaning your payments become cheaper, and cannot rise above a certain agreed level, making it easy for you to budget and more predictable.

You should be very clear about whether you can afford to make the repayments at the level of the cap, which might be set quite high and the interest rates offered may be less competitive than for other variable and fixed rate mortgages.

Capped rate mortgages may also be for a particular fixed time period and if they are, you may have to pay a large sum if you choose to leave early.

New Malden Mortgage Broker Insider Tips

If a family member or friend is providing you with any of the finance towards your home purchase in New Malden, make sure your solicitor has all the information in good time.

If there is a loan or a gift, your solicitor may need proof of funds, relevant documentation and a proof of ID. If they do not have this, you may find yourself ready to exchange but not able to go ahead. Furthermore, your mortgage lender may not be happy to lend where there is an unregistered interest (i.e. the financial interest of your relative or friend) over the property. 

They will want to know if this is going to be a gift or a second registered charge. As you can see this is prone to getting complicated and can affect whether or not you decide to proceed. If you can get everything underway and sorted out as soon as possible, you will be in a better position to make an informed decision from the outset.
