In this end, home owners may find difficulty in paying out their monthly amortizations. This would often lead to people getting into financial difficulties and even losing their homes.
The Financial Services Authority (FSA) has expressed concern over mis-sold mortgage cases in UK. It has done its best efforts to stop the occurrence of mis-selling. It has fined many banks and mortgage brokers for not treating customer fairly. It’s quite alarming how mis-selling becomes more prevalent over the last years. And unfortunately, mis-sold mortgage incidents are still happening up until now.
