As Spring has emerged from the depths of Winter, the housing market shakes off it’s cobwebs and we look to the busy, warmer months ahead – this newsletter is a great chance to get caught up on and prepare for any potential market changes ahead.
An excerpt from the newsletter below…
Spring into action: why now is the time to review your mortgage plans Spring is often seen as a season of fresh starts; that applies just as much to the housing market as it does to the weather. With brighter days, more properties coming onto the market and a sense of momentum building before the summer months, spring is a natural time for people to think seriously about their next move – whether that means buying for the first time, moving home or reviewing an existing mortgage.
You may be closer than you think. For first-time buyers especially, there’s encouraging news. Research shows that many people may be far closer to owning a home than they realise. In fact, 47% of aspiring buyers have never spoken to a mortgage adviser or lender to explore what might be possible. Yet among those who have taken that first step, many discovered they could buy sooner than they had expected. Sometimes, it simply comes down to understanding the options available and getting clarity on what you can afford.
