From start to finish it can take anywhere from a number of months to years to buy a property. How quickly you can buy a home depends on whether you've saved up a house deposit already, if you've received a mortgage offer from a lender, and how long it takes to find, buy and move into your new home.

It’s estimated that house prices could fall by 10% by 2025, with some predicting an even larger drop. For many, this will make getting on the ladder more affordable. However, even if house prices do go down, you could find yourself still unable to afford to buy. If you are thinking of getting on the ladder in 2024, it’s worth getting in touch with a mortgage broker like Tembo to find out how you could increase your affordability to buy sooner.
