A sign of the times 2

For anyone interested in Mortgage possession cases then the Civil Justice Council's consultation paper on the Mortgage Arrears Protocol has been out for a while and is worth a read. Click HERE for it.

It includes some handy stats regarding mortgage possessions. The Paper may be handy tool for Court Desk providers in showing how more people risk losing their home without advice. I'm always amazed how you can sometimes help prevent someone from losing their home with 10 mins good advice and representation at Court.

The Council of Mortgage Lenders (no booing pls) also provides some interesting statistics in regard to the creeping up of mortgages in arrears in 2007. Sadly no stats for 2008 yet.
