A wrought iron gate provides direct access to the fields beyond, ideal for walking.

SITUATION

Compton Bassett stands at the foot of the escarpment of the Marlborough Downs in an area that is predominantly pasture land and well away from main roads. The village is typified by period properties and there is a popular public house, a church and a good village community. The nearby market towns of Calne, Marlborough and Devizes offer a good range of services and amenities. Main line railway services can be found from Chippenham to London Paddington and there is access to the M4 motorway at Junction 16. The area offers a wide range of sporting activities, which include racing at Bath and Salisbury, golf at Bowood and North Wilts and great walking and riding in the surrounding countryside. Local schools include Marlborough College, St Mary’s at Calne and Dauntseys at West Lavington.

The next steps...

Establish funds

How will you fund the purchase?

Before making an offer on a property you will want to consider your financial situation, your income and outgoings.

Will you finance the purchase of your next property from the sale of an existing property which can put you in a chain, arrange a mortgage through your bank or buy the property outright.

To help you finance your next property purchase, we have a long established relationship with an independent mortgage broker who can discuss your situation with you.

Remember that having a 'mortgage decision in principle' can make you a more attractive buyer when you make an offer on a property. Contact our mortgage advisers for free, no obligation and impartial advice.

Some advantages of a broker are:

They do all the legwork for you, working on your behalf with the lender
They compare wholesale mortgage rates from a large number of banks and lenders all at once
Their wholesale interest rates can be lower than retail (bank branch) interest rates
They offer more loan options because they work with numerous banks and lenders
They can finance tricky deals because of their knowledge and various lending partners
They are typically easier to get in contact with, and are less bureaucratic.

However advantages of working with your bank are:

You may be able to build off an existing relationship (and gain discounts if you have a checking or savings account)
You may already know the banker who will handle your mortgage
Banks may be more accountable than a smaller shop
They may offer lower interest rates in some cases
Their ability to add mortgage to existing banking profile and make automatic payments from linked account.
