Getting an agreement in principle is only a soft credit search and they expire after 2-3 months. So, do not worry about taking your time to search for the house thats a right fit for you. A soft credit search will not hurt your credit score, so re-applying for an AIP will not do any harm at all.

It depends to the Lender is, some of them will only instruct the valuation when they are happy with the case and others instruct almost straight away… So if it’s still not been instructed and you have been a week or two into the application then they are probably waiting until everything is okay and then the valuation will be the last item.

It’s okay, if your previous addresses show, as long as your current address is the most recent… If they show slightly different variations, as long as the house or flat number and postcode is correct, then it should pull through on a credit score. However, if it’s completely different, then it might be worth updating it with the credit agency.

Great video, everything in one place makes it so much easier, thanks Alex. My questions, if I may: 1) I’m turning 39 in June 2022. Are there any age limits as a first time buyer? Eg. government schemes, accessing my lifetime ISA funds etc. 2) In a previous reply, you said that buying a first property to get onto the ladder is always worth it in the long run, but might not give dividends in the short term. What is short term and long term? Or is there a way to work out by when the property is already making sense financially? Thanks for the great content 🙏
@alexkerrmortgage
@alexkerrmortgage 2 жыл бұрын
Thank you for watching! 1) you can still get a 30 year mortgage no problem, as you can go to age 69 and there's no limits. 2) short-term is just a few years, you could buy a property just before a market crash for example. But long-term I would say is 10 to 15 years. Historically, factual data states that when you buy a property 10 to 15 years later it's always worth more, pretty much double in most cases.

Also i help my parents out with rent but once i get my own place i won't be doing that, theres also a couple of clubs that i take part in and pay for that i would give up when i move, does that get taken into consideration ny lenders that it wont be an ongoing outgoing once completed or do they say thats what your paying now so that counts against your affordability?

As long as the bank statement you download online has your name, address and bank details on then you can use that. The mortgage lenders will usually ask for three months worth of bank statements, so as long as you stop paying the clubs etc I would say at least 3 to 6 months before the mortgage application, they will not take those payments into account.

There are one or two mortgage lenders, that might consider this as long as you can afford the mortgage in your own name. If you’re married most lenders would want you to do a joint mortgage. However, there are better options if you’ve got any bad credit as well at the moment. If you want to chat further, just let me know!

If you have crypto you just buy the house outright. Why would you need a mortgage if you already have millions in crypto
