  • Unusual times call for unusual solutions for concerned mortgage borrowers and the return of the buyers’ market
    Oct 13 2022

    Monty and Lou talk about the fast-moving changes to mortgage products and rates in the two weeks since the ‘mini budget’ and Monty shares his advice for concerned borrowers (no squeaky chair this time!).

    Lou, meanwhile, is not wearing any form of Star-Wars-themed outfit (all explained in the previous episode…) but does talk listeners through her take on the pre-Christmas property market and provides her top tips for those buying at the moment, as well as sharing the details of a little-known policy to help those who are moving potentially save thousands in the event that their transaction falls through.
