Local Ashford Mortgage Advice

Securing a mortgage can feel like a big deal, especially for first time buyers or those unfamiliar with Ashford's property market.

Owning a home in Ashford isn't as straightforward as it once was. With rising interest rates and an ongoing cost of living crisis, the path to homeownership has become a challenging journey. Tackling the 'rent cycle' while saving for a deposit is just the tip of the iceberg.

Imagine finally saving enough, only to face the complexities of dealing with estate agents, solicitors, and surveyors. Making offers, going on viewings, and potentially being gazumped – it’s a stressful process!
