Mortgage Advice in Hull for 2021
This article discusses the UK November 2020 lockdown and its impact on the mortgage market at the time of publication. Please note that economic conditions change, and this information may no longer be accurate.
In light of the recent announcement from the British Prime Minister Boris Johnson, we want some share the positive news that came with the new lockdown rules.
Similar to the November 2020 lockdown, the property market is still open for business. You can take up house viewings, continue your purchase and still put your home up for sale.
Here is a mortgage market update from Malcolm the ‘moneyman’ himself:
Lockdown 2020 and getting a mortgage in Hull
During the last lockdown in November 2020, there was a huge increase in mortgage enquiries. The boom in home purchase approvals reached a massive 105,000 in November, which is the highest since August 2007.
In October 2020, purchase approvals were at 98,300. This increase of 6,700 is impressive considering we were in the middle of a national lockdown.
