As house prices continue to rise, it may come as a shock to house buyers that the number of mortgage approvals in the UK has continued to fall, according to new figures released by the Bank of England.

As interest rates start creeping upwards, homes for sale are becoming scarcer. Cautious lenders are using new measures to keep lending activity in check and avoid repeating the mistakes of the past.

According to Julie Tomasik, head of residential conveyancing at Ansons Solicitors, “aspiring house buyers should be keenly aware of getting the best team of advisers behind them to present themselves as the best option to sellers and make sure their purchase runs smoothly in this highly competitive market.”
