The strength of the recovery in housing activity and prices in the second half of last year caught many off guard. But can the market continue to recover at this pace in the face of higher stamp duty and a weaker economy?
Join members from our UK Housing, Macro and Commercial Property teams for this 20-minute briefing on the key risks facing the housing market this year and into 2026. During this session, the team will answer your questions as they address key issues including:
- Whether the weak economy will hold back housing or if further falls in mortgage rates will propel the recovery;
- If the growth of house prices can beat the consensus forecast in 2025 for the fifth year in a row;
- Whether rapid rental growth will keep residential investment returns at the top of the pack.
