The mortgage market traditionally sees fewer new applications over the festive season and at the start of the new year, but there appears to be little chance of that happening this year with the end of the stamp duty holiday on the horizon.
We understand just how busy brokers are trying to get cases over the line and we are doing everything we can do to support them.
This heightened level of activity has forced lenders to review how they operate.
While some lenders have been forced to hold back this year and cut down their lending due to funding concerns, we have had the opposite problem at LendInvest.
