Autumn Statement a time for reflection!
Impact of the Autumn Statement
The Housing Market: Had a ‘Mini Panic’ after the Liz Truss Mini Budget and the rise in inflation along with the cost of living compounding this. Demand for new homes is still here and the market will settle down to the ‘New Normal’ after the winter season.
Stamp Duty: Base rate of £250,000 is now better for the average house buyer in the North-West and the £425,000 base rate for first time buyers even more attractive.
Mortgage Market: Increased interest rates added to the ‘Mini Panic’ but these have been reducing steadily with scope for further reductions. After an extended period of low interest however, it may be time to get used to higher interest rates in the future.
The Holiday Home Market: Has been booming since the pandemic with huge investment into Holiday Homes which has paused for breath in recent months. Holiday Homes are a luxury buy and there will be a lot of bargains to be had as current owners look to release equity to help with the cost of living.

Mortgage Market
A time to reflect
The ‘Mini Budget’ created panic in the mortgage market with a knee-jerk reaction to interest rates and an immediate drop in demand from prospective buyers.
The ‘Good News’ is that the mortgage market is beginning to settle down with a steady reduction in rates and new mortgage products being introduced.
Borrowers may feel they have to be patient for a little while before committing, but after enjoying a long period of low interest rates it may be time to accept what could be the ‘New Normal’

Buying a Holiday Home
