As a matter of fact, borrowers are now facing some major difficulties these days and latest reports showed that household finances have been badly stretched in the past year as the cost of energy has increased by 17% and the cost of food by 12%.
And the credit crunch means that the cost of new mortgages has increased, there are fewer mortgages available to choose from, and they are more difficult to obtain. This is making life harder for the 1.4 million borrowers coming off cheaper, fixed-rate mortgages in 2008. But there are ways to help yourself and organisations to help you cope if you are struggling, according to the Council of Mortgage Lenders, Citizens Advice and Shelter.
No matter the size of your financial problems there are steps you can take to tackle them, and the CML, Citizens Advice and Shelter have worked together to come up with ten tips to help struggling households get through the tough times.
