Press Release Body = London (bad-credit-mortgage-choice) July 12, 2006: According to
latest figures issued by the British Banker's Association, the Mortgage lending has
reached £18.23 billion during the month of June. It is the highest level on the
record. This remarkable figure was 18 per cent higher than the statistics available
in April and 27 per cent higher than the lending during the month of May last year.

The total lending was also strong at £5.73 billion, recorded as the highest level
for two years, and up on the recent six-month average of £5.07 billion.

However, consumers seemed pleased to procure a mortgage loan and happy to take on
mortgage debt.

In addition to these figures, it's been found out that people spent a total of £7.68
billion on their plastic during May, which was 16 per cent more than in April.

Nevertheless, people had actually repaid more than they spent which led to an
outstanding card debt falling by £251 million during the same month. It was the
third time this year that repayments had exceeded new spending.

According to the Industrial Relations Services, pay increases had averaged 3 per
cent across the UK over the recent months with only one in four people getting a pay
rise than they did a year ago.
