What credit score do I need for a mortgage? 🏡

🏡Many factors can constitute and contribute to what is considered a credit score, all of which will be taken into account by mortgage lenders when they receive your application for a mortgage. When lenders work out a credit score, they are essentially deciding on the level of risk involved with each applicant in terms of repaying their loan. Your score may be affected by your credit history, information you have provided, your bank information and your lender's policies.

🏡After more than a year of rising energy bills, regulator Ofgem has announced a reduction in the Energy Price Cap from July to September. This is because wholesale energy prices are starting to fall. But Ofgem says it’s unlikely that prices will return soon to the levels we saw before the energy crisis began.

📌'It's best practice' – why you should keep blinds open at night and closed during the day...But it's not just all windows... it's all dependent on which way they're facing 😃

🏡Looking for an easy way to beat the heatwave? Experts reveal why keeping blinds open at night and keeping them closed on specific windows can help keep your home cool. Window blind ideas not only serve the purpose of providing privacy and a splash of decor to a room but are also a savvy way to regulate the temperature in your home. Whether it be keeping your home warm in the winter, to keeping a room cool at the peak of a summer's day, having a couple of shading tips up your sleeve can make the world of a difference when staying indoors this summer.

🏡According to recent data by Loughborough University, 4.6 million homes in England experience overheating in the summer. While those located in suburban and rural locations may find it easier to stay cooler using ventilation from open windows and doors, the increasing popularity of large glazed areas such as bifold doors, large windows, and conservatories can still make overheating a real problem.

🏡It's long been known that you should avoid opening a window on a hot day, so what can you do instead to curb the heat and discomfort when you're stuck in your home all day?

🏡'Recent independent research proves that internal and especially external shading is effective at reducing indoor temperatures in the summer.

🌻'In the summer, closing blinds or shutters during the day helps prevent solar gains and opening them again in the evening can help keep your home cooler.'

🏡'From a best practice point of view, we recommend opening blinds at night on west and north-west facing windows to help with nighttime cooling and closing the blinds during the day on east and south-east facing windows to help create a cool refuge from the sun.'

🏡'It's important to remember to open curtains, blinds and windows when it starts to get dark and the temperature drops outside. You need to allow the cool, evening air in to circulate around your home,' adds Greig Millar, an expert at OVO Energy.

🏡'If you need more natural light in your home during the day, you can keep blinds and windows open on north-facing windows because they tend to be shaded, even during the hottest parts of the day.'

What happens if you think your home is worth more than the figure the agent gives you?

When valuing your property, your agent will present a figure that is based on market research and comparable properties. However, you will always have your perspective of what your property is worth and your agent will listen and take that into account. If you are unsure about the figure presented, your agent will always be happy to sit down to review the work behind arriving at that recommendation.
