Your guide to selling a house during the credit crunch

Homeowners all over the UK are tightening their purse strings in order to survive the current credit crisis. While cutting down on luxury items and unnecessary spending is the right approach to take, it is the rising cost of home loans and mortgage payments that is the biggest hurdle.

According to “Reuters”, homeowners are now facing fees of up to £5,000 to take out a mortgage. Data shows that the fees on fixed-rate mortgages have just about doubled in the past 12 months, as mortgage suppliers battle to keep up their profit margins. To make matters worse, interest rates charged by banks have also gone up.

But it is not only the fees and the bank charges that have increased. Halifax, Britain's biggest mortgage lender, hit homeowners with its second increase in mortgage rates in less than a fortnight.


Halifax controls 20 percent of Britain's mortgage market, and the two increases will add more than £1,000 a year onto a typical £158,100 loan, eating further into the budgets of cash-strapped homeowners.

This latest shock comes amid reports that 1.4 million borrowers will have to apply for a new mortgage this year, as their fixed-rate deals come to an end. Lenders have been pulling cheap fixed rates, cutting the maximum loan-to-value and tightening their lender criteria as problems in global money markets continue.
