Hello Summer! We say goodbye to May and happy hello to June! Weather in the UK is treating us well and the property market stays buoyant although Nationwide has noted the biggest dip in the house prices since 2009! We’ve been published in many media outlets commenting on holiday rentals, landlords’ problems, and given the best tips on how to save money on moving house!
Even if you’re chasing sunset we’re still here, working hard to help people sell their houses and move on with their lives faster than ever before.
In case you missed it, here’s a recap of what happened in May:

But my concern would be if somebody hasn’t been able to save up even just a few thousand pounds over a number of years, what would happen if they do buy a property with 100 per cent mortgage, they’re calling them no deposit or deposit free loans. They’re actually 100 per cent mortgages.

With far more tenant turnover, cleaning and inventories must be carried out constantly, potentially hundreds of times a year. Bedding and consumables need to be replenished as well. Management is very labour intense with agents charging around 20% of rent for the service
