Our busiest Easter for 2 years!!

Buyers, Sellers, landlords and tenants have been out in force over the Easter period and we have been on hand for all their house hunting needs!

It seems there really is life in the market with this year already bursting with successes and fantastic results for us here at Heywoods.

Chris Stops our Director comments,
“Property enquiries are on their way up at long last, the buying season has
started, the choice of houses for sale has increased, we anticipate that the
next few months, may well be our busiest of the year.

We are still low in numbers compared to the activity at its peak, let’s
hope this leads to more sales!

Lettings have also seen a dramatic increase in those searching for
a rental house with multiple enquiries being reviewed on each property. The landlord
has a choice, which is the best of both worlds.

Let’s hope 2012 is a year to remember!”

Chris Stops – Director

Jill Smith is from Mortgage Advice Bureau and comments on the latest Bank of England’s MPC’s decision to hold interest rates at the record low of 0.5%.

“The Bank of England’s Monetary Policy Committee has again decided to hold interest rates at the record low of 0.5% for the 35th month and has announced that it is to increase its Quantitative Easing (QE) programme as it bids to stave off a recession.

Overall Product Numbers

Overall mortgage product numbers reduced a little in January, although we continue to see an increase in the number of mortgage products both at 90% and even 95% loan to value.   This will enable more potential purchasers and in particular first time buyers to potentially enter the housing market.

Average Rates

February has witnessed a small rise in the average cost of 2, 3 and 5 year fixed rates and also in 2 year trackers, although all three categories of fixed rates remain below the same period in 2011. Average initial rates for fixed deals are currently 4.36% (2yr),  4.63% (3yr), 4.64% (5yr) and 3.54% for 2 year trackers.

The UK is directly affected by what happens in the eurozone and with this latest round of QE and with the base rate again held at 0.5%, this could end up providing a boost to mortgage borrowers. “

To find out how the latest base rate decision affects you or if you are a first time buyer looking to enter the housing market call:

Jill Smith from Mortgage Advice Bureau on 01782 664995 or email:  jillsmi@mab.org.uk

Your home may be repossessed if you do not keep up repayments on your mortgage. There will be a fee for mortgage advice.  The actual amount you pay will depend upon your circumstances.  The fee is up to 1%, but a typical fee is 0.3% of the amount borrowed. (or enter own fee statement)
