Looks like current mortgage rate landscape will languish here for a while yet, as inflation rears its head once more to have the last laugh. The good news is that the mortgage market is set to open up in the new year, and canny purchasers will be looking to take advantage of a buyers' market now.

As the list of lenders increasing their rates gets longer, those borrowers who held off expecting mortgage rates to fall will be left licking their wounds as they watch their potential monthly payments increase. It just shows how quickly a market can turn and that nothing can be taken for granted.

Well, that was all too serious! Hello to all new followers and I look forward to some interaction and mutual support!

The stamp duty deadline, especially for First Time Buyers could support activity levels in the early stages of 2025 and lenders will be competing for business in an effort to kick-start the new year well, but we do need to see mortgage rates starting with a 3 once more as soon as possible.

In September, the property market had real momentum as mortgage rates were falling and there was a sense of optimism in the air. That optimism is now disappearing after the budget and recent inflationary rises that have put paid to further interest rate cuts in the short-term.

#Inflation jumping effectively puts paid to another #interestrate cut this year. Looking at the data, especially around sticky core inflation the next rate cut may well not even come in Q1 next year but a little later. The latest budget has caused issues, but global factors also weigh heavily ...

A big week ahead for inflation and therefore #interestrate talk - really well summed up here by Investors Edge www.investorsedge.finance/post/heavy-m...

Hopefully we will finally start to transform the archaic #homebuying journey in the UK. Any ideas? mortgagesoup.co.uk/hope-for-new...

It’s going to be interesting to see what happens next with #UKMortgagerates as the number of sub 4% mortgage products disappears once more. Much depends on SWAPs settling and lender competition
