Property Asking Prices Reach All-Time High

The average price of a property coming to market in the UK has reached a record high, rising by 0.3 per cent (£1,091) in September to £338,462, according to figures from Rightmove. However, this new record is only £15 higher than the previous record set in July, which Ruighmove say is a sign of the market stabilising.

Help to buy mortgage scheme 5% deposit

Help to Buy: Equity Loan government scheme is designed to aid first time buyers and home-movers with purchasing a property. The scheme is for new builds only, valued under £600,00. It is designed to help when purchasers are struggling to find a full mortgage deposit. How it works is as follows; the Government lends the buyer up to 20% of the cost of the property, and this allows applicants to pay only a 5% deposit. That leaves the buyer having to find a mortgage of up to 75% to make up for the remainder of the purchase price.

Testimonials

  • We had Jason as our advisor and he was fantastic throughout. We were limited with our options due to being self employed and only 1-2 years of books. Jason was extremely helpful throughout and managed to get us a fantastic deal. Communication was great and he was so responsive to all enquires, even on weekends, bank holidays and he has just replied to an email even though he is on holiday! He really puts the work in and made it such an easy and simply process for us, and being first time buyers, this was all we wanted. It's been 3 months after getting in touch with him and we already have the keys to our new home! Not only is he professional, he is generally a really nice guy and understanding to any circumstances. We couldn't sing his praises enough and will be recommending his services to all of our friends and family.
