Hi I must admit I do agree with you the only thing you didn't mention is that the building costs have gone through the roof which is probably one of the reasons the house prices have not changed much.i also agree that the house market will start going up again with a new government because that's will stabilise the market. people are going to get used to the interest rate being about five percent (where it historically should be) and the markets will rise again.the rental market is being changed by the government to promote big corporate landlords and get rid of the small landlords to try to improve rental standards but to achieve this rent's will have to increase substantialy to achieve a profit for sher holder's.

@stevep9221 it is very different system in Scotland. Nothing to do with sales man tactics. Seller do home report which has valuation on it. All buyer need to put offer through their own solicitor. In good areas, bid goes over 30% of valuation price. Everything is open to buyer except offer figure of other competitive buyers. I have lost 2 times as well in bid. Guide price on listing is just a low nunber to invite maximum nunber of bidders. Valuation is number to look and decide how much over you want to go. Very different than left of UK.

The only thing that matters is whether you can afford to buy or not if it’s going to be a long term home. If interest rates are high prices fall a few % and if they fall prices rise. So either way you pay either a higher price or higher rate of interest. Timing the market for speculation often doesn’t pay off. A bigger question is whether you should live in the U.K. at all. I can’t help feeling like I’m living on the titanic and going down so I’m selling up and heading for the exit.

@bb14575 ай бұрын
This is not simple. Buying a home to live in is great if the place is nice and you can afford it. Buying to make a profit is different. Renting is now cheaper than owning and doubly so if house prices continue to drift down. The jobs market is going the wrong way. Mortgage defaults are rising steadily. Only forebearance is keeping this off the headlines. Some houses bought in the feeding frenzy of a few years ago are coming back on at lower prices. Many others are on sale at the same or higher prices with no takers.

@dlc24795 ай бұрын
Why are you so confident that the reductions are ending? It sounds like you're saying that because prices have come down that they won't continue to go down which doesn't make sense. We still have 2 more cohorts of people to cycle off of ultra low interest rates in properties they over paid for, residential owners and btl investors included. Also not investing in property =/= not investing at all. It's irresponsible to encourage ppl to keep buyimg when the costs of ownership sky rocket. This is fine for large players but disatrous for newbies.

Claims to be an expert but ignoring every fact and doing zero due diligence on the truth. This is a sham and look at what really is happening to house prices. The ONS HPI is leaving out 80% of all sales they could include. It is a fact so do not believe those that have zero knowledge of the market. Please do you own due diligence by looking at your postcode on the price paid data base from Land Registry and then decide yourself if you are dealing with an expert or someone that is trying to get you to pay trillions more for your houses than you need to. The ONS should be investigated for false accounting. They say a calendar year contains 13 months. Apr23 to Apr 24 is 13 months but they will say it is a year. There has been a lot of dishonesty in house sales to prop up the house market.

Hang on! If we shouldn’t wait until 2026 or after to buy, because banks will be reluctant to lend, what happens if we buy now on a 2yr tie in? We’d still need access to funds in 2026. 🤔 Plus if we buy now and things drop, we’ll have lost a chunk of our deposit on paper, so will have to stump up more to refinance on a property that has dropped. Not good.

@midlifecarsis64205 ай бұрын
It's pretty obvious what's going to go off over the next couple of years. A drawn out recession will see the base rate come back down to the BoE target of 2%, putting residential mortgage rates in the 3-4% range. This will spark house price increases in most areas, likely around 10-15% to catch up somewhat to inflation. As you say, right now is the time to buy and on a two year fixed term. The average long term homeowner doesn't really need to care about short term noise. The only thing you need to be concerned about is being in negative equity at mortgage renewal, which can be mitigated with a decent deposit.

Good luck refinancing your debt. Despite the promise of rate cuts, long term rates are still rising because debt continues to rise. Mortgages, auto, credit card, student loans and now people even buy every day goods on monthly instalments. We are reliant on people for ever indebting themselves to ever greater levels to keep the economy from crashing. Or at least those who have a property portfolio are!😊

Supply stays constricted and this will push prices up further. Land is very short and high rates limit new construction. Prices will rise. Picking up a loan now might pay off in a few years when rates are getting lower. Still supply is extremly short even in the long term so no crash till 2035.

Covid made the gov' provide huge sums of money which mostly went to the rich, even indirectly. Rich accumulated stacks of savings buying stocks and assets. Asset holders were mainly the gov' and middle class property owners. This asset grab superheated property prices and drove consumer spending and inflation. Which raised interest on debt.

Higher mortgage costs encouraged many lower earners to sell property which the rich grabbed with a discount. Accumulated wealth from covid mainly stayed with the rich and inflation on goods and services (CPI) actually fell as asset prices on property now saw record inflation, this not part of CPI calc'. Goods and service sales r now driven by middle earners who probably offloaded property for capital. The rich have increased their wealth with assets not goods. Young people who needed family wealth to get onto the ladder now likely won't get that help as the farm has been sold.
