Mortgage approvals hit 13 year high

By |

In August, mortgage approvals soared to 84,700, a sharp increase on July's figure of 66,300 and the highest monthly figure since October 2007.

The surge in approvals can be attributed to several factors, including record low interest rates and the government's temporary Stamp Duty holiday.

Despite a weak economic backdrop, experts say changes in people's behaviour working habits and aspirations as a result of the pandemic have led to increased demand. Longer term expectations suggest the Stamp Duty holiday will keep the market buoyant throughout Q1 2021, although recovery into Q2 and beyond will largely depend on the wider economic picture.

What our Customers Say...

Have been with this company for the last few years, Andrew is very professional, perfect at his job., Yet, very accessible and intimate when you call. Feels like a brother. Do I need to say more?!

 

B. Elsammani

Daniel Temperley made it such a simple and smooth process for my mortgage application. Also being a first time buyer he advised me about the whole process from start to finish. Daniel works very hard and he delivered! I got my mortgage offer! Thank you very much Daniel. I definitely recommend Simmonds Mortgage Services !

 

J. Dzikiti

A great service provided by Andrew and his team. Would highly recommend to anyone requiring a mortgage.

 

T. Madurasinghe

After being declined by Santander, due to unusual circumstances, Daniel was able to find a good mortgage for me and I received an offer in less than a month! Very helpful and doesn't do the 'complicated' speak! :-)

 

J. Marr

Andrew's arranged my mortgages for many years. He's very knowledgeable, provides best market options and is very straight forward to deal with. He manages the whole process proactively and gives clear guidance throughout. Thanks Andrew

 

Lou

Andrew provided an excellent service. He worked very hard all the way, and was always very easy to reach (even when on holiday!). Cannot thank him enough. Would definitely recommend.Thanks again

 

Z. Naqash

Andrew was absolutely brilliant throughout all of the process. He made it seem simple and spared me all complexities that people tell you about getting a mortgage. I couldn't be happier with the service he provided and would recommend him to friends in a heartbeat!

 

D. Gough

Andrew was easy to deal with from start to finish for our remortgage. We have some unusual circumstances and other brokers we had tried had only got so far before moving onto "easier" business. Andrew kept on going until we got the outcome we wanted. A new cheaper rate! I wouldn't hesitate to recommend him.

 

C. Domanska-Dredge

Andrew gave comprehensive sound equity release advice and I would not hesitate to use him again in such matters.

 

A. York

Having been recommended to us, Andrew sorted us out with our first mortgage five years ago, and we didn't hesitate to use his services again when it came round to re-mortgaging. Andrew advised us on the various options available, all of which resulted in significantly reduced monthly mortgage payments, and talked us through the benefits of staying with our existing lender versus moving to a new lender - useful advice seeing it was my first time remortgaging and I had little time to research offers myself. I cannot recommend Simmonds Mortgage Services enough.
