Hold off applying for credit until old issues have expired

Bankruptcy and county court judgments stay on your file for six years and data about applications for a year.

It's therefore worth leaving applications until problems such as these have been removed from your file to boost your chances of success.

Discount Mortgage

Discount mortgages are another variant of variable mortgages but the discount is linked to the lender's standard variable rate (SVR) as opposed to the Bank of England's base rate. One of the risks involved is that the lender, if stated within its terms & conditions, can reserve the right to increase its rate independently of any movement – or non-movement – of the Bank of England base rate.

The discount normally applies during a fixed, agreed term and all mortgages that have a fixed term normally require a mortgagor to pay a large early repayment charge if they opt to leave early.


Nottingham is a large city in Nottinghamshire County in the East Midlands. Its cultural and entertainment options are rich and varied, with large theatres, museums, auditoriums, such as Rock City in Talbot Street (rock, independent and student bands) and sporting facilities.

There are two large shopping centres (Victoria and Broadmarsh) and many smaller ones. Landmarks include St Mary's Church and Wollaton Hall. There are 2 universities; the University of Nottingham and Nottingham Trent University. The Galleries of Justice Museum is an excellent visitor attraction, with its ghost tours and prison museum. Alternatively, those who like the ale might want to visit Ye Olde Trip to Jerusalem, described as 'a higgledy-piggledy old-world boozer'!

Nottingham Mortgage Broker Insider Tips

If you're buying, getting a structural assessment (Building Survey) of your property in Nottingham 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 Nottingham 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!
