It's much easier, you just post two diametrically opposed views and chances are you will be right not too far off 50% of the time

first repossessions are quite hard to do, many banks don't like doing them and second the upward motion is just after the rules restricting repossessions have been relaxed.

If you offer to pay something that the court sees as reasonable (remember fines can be paid back at £1 a week) the repossession is pretty much stopped in its tracks.

There were 700 repossessions from homeowners between July and September

Repossessions from landlords also rose 11%, according to UK Finance data

Mortgage rates have climbed sharply adding hundreds to monthly payments

Its going to be rocky, keep your cash dry!
