The latest scare for the property market revolves around mortgages, it seems that first time buyers are not the only ones feeling the heat of the mortgage lending crunch. Even second time buyers or second-steppers with little equity are being refused mortgages unless they can stump up 25% or even 40% as a deposit.
So if you only have a small deposit of around 5% or 6% you could be refused or pay the price with a huge mortgage rate to pay.
Buyers who profited from the mid noughties mortgage boom are now paying the price, while those with money are relatively unaffected.
So what can low-equity buyers do? Since your money isnt earning in bank accounts its better in your property. Buy a reliable property which can easily be sold and goes up in price every year and put your monly into the deposit! Easier said than done of course!

Whats that you say? You didnt even watch the Olympics? Well most other people did and believe it or not the UK housing market dropped (asking price) by on average 4.5% with almost £10k being wiped off the price during that time.
So much so that when the games ended with the Spice Girls (the Rolling Stones would have been better surely?) the property market bounced back by 3.5% creating a mini housing boom for late 2012 with more and more people venturing out of their bunkers to sell their house.
The market is up 1.5% on the same time last year and a fragile confidence is growing that 2013 might be the time when the big turn around comes.
It could be that sellers are over pricing their properties and we will see a reverse in the months to come. Its seems there may be split in that upper value properties are rising in value and only lower value ones and ones in struggling markets stagnating.
