Signs of life were seen in the UK housing market in the new year with a rise in the number of mortgages being approved.
Activity remains weak overall, with potential buyers still nervous about high interest rates.

All measures of sales market activity continue to improve as pent-up demand returns to the housing market. Buyer demand is 11% higher than a year ago.

The North East (+17%) and London (+16%) have led the rebound in sales.
A poor credit rating can be a major barrier to getting a mortgage, but the good news is, there are lenders who are prepared to help those whose applications may be refused elsewhere. It might not seem fair but even having a big deposit in place and a decent salary isn’t enough to guarantee you a mortgage, if you have a poor credit history.
