If I want to buy a new home what can the industry do for me now?

What a great time to move house. The winter is over, the weather is picking up and so is the property market. The government is assisting first time buyers in getting onto the property ladder which in turn is also helping people sell and move upwards.  The Bank of England are keeping interest rates low which is helping a lot of people get back onto a better financial footing.
The summer holidays are fast approaching and so why not get settled into your dream house in time for the summer?  If you delay decisions until the summer moving costs can increase.  Removal companies tend to be busier during the school holiday period and use this as an opportunity to hike their rates.

There is an increased likelihood, given the recent statements by the governor of the Bank of England, now the economy is starting to grow again that an increase in the base rate will happen within the near future.  The good news is that fixed rate pricing at the minute is incredibly low.

If you need help finding out what you can afford or indeed if you have alternative funding options available to you via the government speak to a good independent mortgage advisor. They can save you a lot of time and hassle of trawling the high street to find a bank or building society that can only give you advice on what they can lend you and the products they have on offer!
