Even if official interest rates remain at 0.5% this year as we expect, with lender’s margins under pressure, competition for retail funds still strong and regulatory costs more likely to rise than fall, we suspect that average mortgage interest rates will …

Our forecast that house prices will drop by 10% this year is unchanged. But, in view of the market’s surprising recovery last year, there is clearly risk that the current upward momentum in house prices will last for longer than we are expecting. Thus the …

Given our views that the labour market shake-out has some way to go, we believe that house prices will suffer a relapse in 2010. Our central forecast is for prices to fall by 10% taking them back to Spring 2009 levels, thus reversing last year’s gains. … …

According to the CML, aside from a brief period in 1996, mortgage affordability is the best on record. By contrast, our own measure of affordability is only in line with its long-run average and is no better than it was in 2004. These conflicting messages …

Scotland’s housing market may have shaken off its reputation as an underperformer compared to the UK in recent years, but its longer term outlook is not so promising. Unfavourable demographics and a heavy reliance on the deteriorating public sector and …

Anecdotal evidence suggests that one of the key drivers of recent house price rises is increased demand from individuals seeking a better return than is available in the bank. Our calculations suggest that cash-rich buyers who do not require mortgage …

In macro-economic and fiscal terms, this PBR was a complete non-event. It did nothing to support the economy in the near term, and nothing to restore the public finances to health further ahead. A major fiscal tightening still lies in wait after the …
