Is negative equity preventing you from moving?
Buying your first house is one of the biggest milestones in life, but for most people it’s only the first step onto the property ladder
Moving when in Negative Equity
| Overview
Buying your first house is one of the biggest milestones in life, but for most people it’s only the first step onto the property ladder.
As peoples’ lives develop they tend to move on from their starter home to bigger properties that give them more space to grow their family, with bedrooms for children, a garden and more space to tailor the house to meet their needs in a way that most smaller terraced houses or apartments don’t allow.
Sometimes, however, negative equity can leave people trapped in their first home without enough space to accommodate their growing family.
Why is negative equity a problem?
Negative equity refers to a situation where a property is worth less than the remaining value of the mortgage owed on it. This is a problem for homeowners because the sale of the house is not going to generate enough money to pay off the remainder of the loan, so they’ll have to cover this cost themselves.
This is a particular problem if you are selling your home with the intention of buying another, as paying the remaining mortgage costs left after your first home has been sold will likely make it unaffordable for you to pay another deposit.
| Success Stories
One of our recent clients, Kerry, had this to say after we settled her case; “The service provided by Negative Equity UK was excellent. Despite all of my concerns and fears about the process Natasha and Lesley really went out of their way to provide excellent guidance and advice.
“They took their time explaining in detail the process, no question was left unanswered. I would highly recommend them to others. My negative equity of £97,000 was reduced to £14,000 final payment. I can’t thank them enough.”
