Mortgage Rates are Falling After a few years of doom and gloom amongst the housing market, it looks like things are picking up. Why? Well, not only are more people now searching for property, interest rates are also falling. This is great news, not only for those moving home, but also if you are looking for a better deal on your current mortgage.
5. Once your mortgage is complete, they’ll look after you in years to come. On the anniversary of your current rate expiring, they’ll be on hand to take another look at your mortgage and get you the best deal again.
I’ve found over the past few years that if you have come off a special deal on your mortgage, and moved onto the mortgage companies’ standard variable rate, you’ll have enjoyed a really low rate which other mortgage companies have struggled to beat. However, now that many banks and building societies have slashed their fixed and variable rates, there are deals out there that can compete against the standard rates on offer.
For more information on mortgages, you can visit www.personal-protection-insurance.com/designer-mortgages/
So, if you are sitting on a variable rate, it’s definitely worth checking out your options. Our free review service at OVISO means we’ll search the market, at no cost to you, to let you know if you can save money. If you can’t, you’ve lost nothing!
Fiona
Until next time…
5 Reasons why you should use a ‘whole of market’ mortgage broker? 1. We search thousands of mortgages, some which are exclusive to brokers, to be able to provide a truly unbiased quote. 2. The good brokers out there (like us) will also take into consideration mortgages that are direct to you, rather than through a broker, so we can be impartial in our advice. 3. It’s no secret that getting a mortgage has become difficult, so using someone who knows the industry, inside and out, means you’ll save time struggling to figure out who can, and cannot, help you – remember, just because your bank said no, it doesn’t mean someone else won’t help you. 4. A good broker will take care of all the hassle – application forms, liaising with solicitors, estate agents, and overseas call centres, so you don’t have to.
YOUR HOME MAY BE REPOSSESSED IF YOU DO NOT KEEP UP REPAYMENTS ON YOUR MORTGAGE. If you choose to use OVISO, our typical fee for processing a mortgage application is £295 and £195 for First Time Buyers. Our fee is taken into consideration when advising you if it’s best to remortgage.

Indoor climbing appeals to all ages and both sexes, so is perfect for a family day out. Being especially popular with children, the exercise offers them excitement and challenges in a safe environment, a positive experience of achievement and instilling a sense of focus, responsibility, and trust.

QUAD’s Summer Nights Film Festival, outdoor film screenings in outdoor locations returns to National Trust venues throughout Derbyshire and Wolloton Hall in Nottingham August - September 2013 Another musical, but this time the comedy romance Mamma Mia is set on a colourful Greek island where young woman about to be married discovers that any one of three men could be her father. A great chance to sing-a-long to a feel good film with a wealth of ABBA songs.
Summer Nights Film Festival 2013 will tour a selection of classic and contemporary films and to National Trust locations throughout Derbyshire in August and September. Presented on a giant screen by QUAD, Derby’s centre for art and film, Summer Nights offers the chance to enjoy the great outdoors for a unique cinematic experience. Four National Trust venues in Derbyshire plus Wollaton Hall in Nottinghamshire and film titles picked from some of the Oscar successes of 2012 and 2013 for Summer Nights 2013. Tickets for the screenings are now available to book in advance at a discounted ‘early bird’ rate of £10.50. The world’s most infamous “Momma’s Boy” is let out for good behaviour for a rare screening of Psycho. Starring Anthony Perkins and Janet Leigh, this film still has the power to shock fifty years since its original release, Psycho screens at Calke Abbey. The sweeping and spectacular interpretation Les Misérables brings to life the classics ‘I Dreamed A Dream’, ‘Bring Him Home’, ‘One Day More’ and many more. Directed by the Oscar winning director of The King’s Speech, Tom Hooper, and featuring an Oscar Winning performance from Anne Hathaway.
Still in the music theme, Quartet is a charming, funny and insightful film in which four ageing opera singers are reunited in a specialist retirement home. Dustin Hoffman’s directorial debut, starring Dame Maggie Smith, Tom Courtenay, Pauline Collins Michael Gambon and Billy Connolly, Quartet. Based on the worldwide bestselling Booker Prize winning novel by Yann Martel, Life of Pi won an Oscar for director Ang Lee. The spellbinding nature of the book is brought to glorious life, as a young Indian boy Pi, a zookeeper’s son, finds himself adrift in the Pacific Ocean on a boat with a hyena, a zebra, an orang-utan and a Bengal tiger. Daniel Craig stars as 007 in the most recent James Bond release Skyfall. His mission is to keep a computer drive with a list of all the British agents from being used against them. As MI6 comes under attack, 007 must track down and destroy the threat, no matter how personal the cost. The ultimate High School Musical Grease is set amid the 1950s teenage social and peer prejudices of the tumultuous final year of high school. The story of love found on a summer beach, then lost and found again. In Batman: The Dark Knight Rises, Director Christopher Nolan returns to his Gotham City with Christian Bale as Batman, Anne Hathaway as Catwoman and Tom Hardy as
Bane. Shot in the grounds of Wollaton Hall in Nottingham. The dates of the screenings are: Psycho (15) at Calke Abbey on Friday 9th August Les Misérables (12A) at Calke Abbey on Saturday 10th August Mamma Mia (PG) at Kedleston Hall on Friday 16th August Quartet (12A) at Kedleston Hall on Saturday 17th August Les Misérables (12A) at Sudbury Hall on Saturday 24th August Life of Pi (PG) at Sudbury Hall on Sunday 24th August Skyfall (12A) at Hardwick Hall on Friday 30th August Grease (PG) at Hardwick Hall on Saturday 31st August Les Misérables (12A) at Wollaton Hall, Notttinghamshire, on Friday 6th September Batman: The Dark Knight Rises at Wollaton Hall, Notttinghamshire on Saturday 7th September.

after school
Derby theatre school gets into the groove with race for life’s cancer slam RAZZAMATAZ Theatre School are pulling on their dancing shoes to inspire Derbyshire women to enter Cancer Research UK’s Race for Life. The dancers are swapping their usual routine for a feisty new dance known as Race for Life’s ‘Cancer Slam’. Capturing the energy and spirit of Race for Life, the Cancer Slam has been created to bring the indescribable power and emotion of the women-only events to life. It also embodies the passion and determination behind the rallying cry ‘Cancer, we’re coming to get you.’ Organisers hope the Cancer Slam will stop
shoppers in their tracks and motivate mums, grans, daughters, sisters and friends to sign-up for Race for Life on the spot. The Cancer Slam will also be performed by thousands of women as part of the rousing warm-up at 230 Race for Life events around the UK this summer. A video showing how to do the dance steps is available online so participants can practice ahead of their events. Shanley Booth of Razzamataz Theatre School said: “We’ve had great fun learning to do the Cancer Slam. We hope people feel the excitement and energy of the routine and then want to enter their local Race for Life event. She continued: “Cancer touches so many people. That’s why we feel so passionately
about rallying women of all ages to the cause. We want to help kick cancer into touch by taking part in Race for Life and raising as much money as possible to help save lives.” So women of all shapes and sizes are needed to join together as a formidable army and take on cancer at Darley Park, Derby on Sunday 14th July 2013.

Al fresco dining is what summer is all about, and easy, throw – on – a – board – food is what we’re all about!
At this time of year we recognise that every glimmer of sunshine brings hopes of a picnic or barbeque!
Think fine cheeses, cooked meats, patés & breads for easy suppers; the kind of laid back grazing perfect to enjoy with a crowd of friends without the stress and heat of the kitchen!
We are able to support this casual dining with our range of pork pies, scotch eggs, tartlets, salads & coleslaws, antipasti produce & fresh speciality breads daily.

The benefits of… Neutering
Microchipping
• There are more kittens born in the UK than there are good homes for them all. Be a responsible owner. Think - Do the right thing.
• Microchipping also has a number of other welfare benefits, including:
• In their lifetime a pair of cats and their offspring can have up to 11,606,077 kittens. • Cat diseases spread by mating are on the increase and yes they can kill your cat. • Feline Aids - a disease that can be passed by mating in both male and female cats is on the up. Get your cat neutered and reduce this risk, save the heart ache of losing a beloved pet. • Neutering has never been so cheap, quick and easy.
• Deterrent to pet theft • Allows for rapid return • Easier identification and subsequent arrests of owners culpable of animal cruelty • Enables veterinary surgeons to contact pet owners for emergency procedures • Allows identification of pets in properties in emergency situations so that pets and owners can be moved and reunited more quickly • Saves undue stress for both you and your pets

Can you give Ford a loving home? Ford is an adult male who came into the shelter as a welfare concern. He is now feeling much better thanks to the RSPCA and is ready to find a new place to call home. Ford often gets overlooked due to the large volume of Kittens we receive, but he really is a charming, sweet and kind cat – who is also very tall! To offer Ford a home, call 01332 344620.
We’re also on the look out for Foster homes! Can you help? Edition 15 | Summer 2013
