Show sellers you\u2019re serious!<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Buying overseas is no longer simply about \u2018Location, Location, Location\u2019. Now more than ever \u2018Affordability, Affordability, Affordability\u2019 matters. Before you do anything, make sure you can borrow the money to buy your dream home.<\/p>\n

What\u2019s an Approval in Principle?<\/strong><\/p>\n

At a time when securing a mortgage is no longer such a given, it\u2019s vital that you determine how much you can afford before embarking on the purchase process. An ‘Approval in Principle’ (AIP) will do just that \u2013 it will tell you exactly how much you can borrow and what price range you can realistically consider when conducting your property search. And it will avoid potential disappointment later on in the buying process, if you\u2019ve got your heart set on a property which is simply beyond your means. <\/p>\n

Put yourself in a stronger buying position<\/strong><\/p>\n

An AIP will also put you in a much better position with agents and developers and prove to them that you\u2019re a serious buyer. Over recent months, the conversion rate at which overseas property developers have converted sales enquiries to a completed purchase has decreased significantly. Often, this has been due to potential buyers failing to secure the funds they simply presumed would be available to them. They need, for example, to be aware of the likely Loan to Value (LTV) obtainable on a mortgage, as this determines the deposit required.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s no surprise, therefore, that agents and developers will deal with someone who has an AIP far more seriously. <\/p>\n

Get your mortgage Approved in Principle <\/strong><\/p>\n
