Housing Market Poised for Growth Amid Lower Mortgage Rates and Political Stability

The housing market is showing promising signs of growth, as key uncertainties have been addressed, paving the way for increased home-mover confidence. According to Tim Bannister, Rightmove’s director of property science, “Three major uncertainties hanging over the property market at the start of the year were when the first interest rate cut would be, and the timing and the result of the general election. We’ve now got the political certainty of a new government with a large majority, which we expect will help home-mover confidence.”

This newfound political stability is coupled with encouraging trends in mortgage rates. After months of speculation, mortgage rates are gradually decreasing. Market analysts are anticipating an interest rate reduction at the next Bank of England meeting, which is expected to occur in August or September. This reduction is likely to drive rates even lower.
