Mortgage boom

MortgageThe property market has been incredibly hot since May 2020. The first lockdown last March put a stop to the sector. But, since then there has been a wave of activity, including a jump in purchases across much of the UK. You have probably seen this yourself in your local area with properties going on sale and changing hands faster than usual.

There are a number of factors influencing the surge in deals. First is the fact that a lot of people had to put their plans on hold because of coronavirus and Brexit. As a result many buyers are now completing deals.

Another influence is the stamp duty holiday. This was introduced to encourage people to buy homes and save on the amount of tax they would have to pay. A number of potential buyers may have chosen to act so they could enjoy the savings.

However, possibly the most important influence is the affordability of borrowing. Rates have been very low, making it easier for many people to access the finance they need to buy. In fact, the data shows that 70% of property transactions since May 2020 have included a mortgage.

The mortgage hotspots

Property management company LewishamLondon as a whole is one of the top locations for mortgages. The data shows that 80% of all sales in the city were possible because of a mortgage.

There are some areas within the capital that have an even higher percentage than this though. Lewisham was the top hotspot in the whole of the UK at 88%. The second and third hotspots were also in the city; Waltham Forest and Barking and Dagenham both had 87%.

To put into perspective how high these percentages are, just 40% of transactions in East Lindsey, Lincolnshire involved a mortgage. Several other areas including North Norfolk, Torridge, Scarborough, and Argyll and Bute were under 50%.
