HB - The Legal Corner Magazine #Issue 2

In the second half of 2022, many people trying to acquire new properties were affected by the ongoing financial volatility, seeing the Bank of England raise the base rate of interest multiple times. This climate has seen mainstream lenders increase their rates, reduce product ranges, and withdraw products entirely, often with little or no notice.
