Buy a £400,000 house with a £10,000 deposit
Small deposit for a home – we can make your income stretch further get the mortgage that helps you
A bigger home – now that’s a nice thought isn’t it! Despite the hash economic back-drop average house prices actually rose last year. Great if you are in your dream home but tough on the majority of us.
History dictates that the recent baby boom is indicative of recessions. The need to move onwards and upwards is real but let’s face it jobs are generally under threat so understandably we are rightly cautious, and do not want to over commit.
It could be that you are simply one of the thousands of first time buyers stuck at home with your parents or in rented accommodation – as property appears to move further and further out of reach. Lenders are simply unwilling to lend to a level that makes it worthwhile or are asking for unreasonable levels of deposit.
Even taking down the Christmas Decorations often leads people to rethink their habitat but it is not as easy to move house as it once was.
Whatever the reason most of us what prefer a bigger home – and now its possible!
