A number of alternative sources of private sector rent data have recently emerged. However, their conflicting signals mean that the available picture of what is actually happening to rents remains confused. What does seem clear, however, is that with the …

There are tentative signs that activity levels in the housing market are bottoming out. Any recovery in activity is, however, unlikely to be sufficiently strong to prevent further house price falls. Our forecast of a 20% fall in house prices this year and …

Last October we estimated that the current housing market correction would leave some 2.5 million households with at least some degree of negative equity. CML estimates, published yesterday, that roughly 900,000 households have already been affected seem …

This morning’s Daily Telegraph reported that, according to Lombard Street Research, housing affordability is now better than its long-term average. That much is uncontroversial. However, we disagree with their conclusion that the housing slump will be …

Given the severity of the decline in buyer interest over the past year or two, the recent reported increase is just a drop in the ocean. Buyer interest will need to rise significantly further before it can be expected to trigger a meaningful housing …

Today’s Turner Review confirmed that the FSA is actively considering imposing limits on mortgage loan to value or loan to income ratios. Whether or not that is in the economy’s long term interest remains open to debate. But, in the short term, this news …

Although welcome, the resumption of lending by Northern Rock will not transform the mortgage market outlook overnight. However, it is also a sign that the Government is increasingly willing to intervene directly in the lending markets. At the very least, …

To our minds, the weight of evidence suggests that the fair value level for house prices is currently in the region of £125,000. For context, that figure is some 17% below the Nationwide’s estimate of average house prices in January of £150,500 and 33% …

There is little evidence to suggest that house prices are close to their floor. Recent data support our view that house prices will fall a further 20% this year before stabilising in early 2010. This will leave them 35% below their peak. These forecasts …
