In this issue we focus on the current Mortgage Rate War amongst lenders* and how it may benefit you. For example, the excellent interest rates on offer could assist people’s desire to get onto the property ladder.
For existing homeowners, it could help generate the extra funds needed for renovations to secure more living space, if affected by homeworking. Or, it may assist the homeowner in finding a more suitable alternative property – which delivers more space, is in a different area – or both.
Elsewhere in the issue, we look specifically at ways to assist First-Time Buyers, andalso the options for those coming to the end of their mortgage deals. Other may simply want to take advantage of the current interest rates, and look to Remortgage now, onto a more suitable package.
And in amongst all this, we signal the importance of ensuring that you have a suitable level of Protection Insurange in place should either the worst happens, or if you found yourself unable to earn an income due to illness or injury.
Finally, Landlords have had it tough over the last few years, but tenant demand is still there, and rents are at record levels, and the Mortgage Rate War may benefit Landlords too. **
We hope you find this issue of interest and do get in touch if you have any questions.
