Across the UK, the average house price in June rose to a record £271,613, up by 0.3% month on month. “Moreover, the Bank of England is widely expected to raise interest rates further, which will also exert a cooling impact on the market if this feeds through to mortgage rates.” Myron Jobson, a senior personal finance analyst at Interactive Investor, said: “Property prices have gone up faster than wages, creating an affordability squeeze, while mortgage rates have risen to levels we haven’t seen in a while. “Nevertheless, the housing market has retained a surprising amount of momentum given the mounting pressure on household budgets from high inflation, which has already driven consumer confidence to a record low. Gabriella Dickens, a senior UK economist at Pantheon Macroeconomics, said: “We expect house prices to drop by around 2% in the second half of the year, pushing down the year-over-year rate to around 2% by the end of the year.” The average UK house price hit a new record high in June but there are “tentative signs of a slowdown”, according to an index.

However, he claimed there are “tell-tale signs” that the property market is “losing momentum”. Nationwide house price data has revealed that house price growth has “softened” in nine of the UK’s 13 regions. “These trends may reflect a shift in housing preferences; our housing market surveys have pointed to the majority of people looking to move to less urban areas. “At the same time, the stock of homes on the market has remained low, which has helped to keep upward pressure on house prices.” The Bank of England is also expected to raise interest rates further which will have a “cooling impact” on the UK property market if this impacts mortgage rates. “Part of the resilience is likely to reflect the current strength of the labour market, where the number of job vacancies has exceeded the number of unemployed people in recent months. The housing expert said the property market is expected to “slow further” as Britons feel further pressure on household finances.

“These trends may reflect a shift in housing preferences; our housing market surveys have pointed to the majority of people looking to move to less urban areas. Since 2020 Q1, average house prices in the capital have increased by 14.9%, whilst all other regions, except the Outer Metropolitan, have seen at least a 20% uplift. Price growth in Northern Ireland was similar to last quarter at 11.0%. Meanwhile, Scotland saw a 9.5% year-on-year rise in house prices. While the South West was the strongest performing region, overall southern England saw weaker growth than northern England. Our research found that predominantly rural areas have seen stronger price growth in recent years than predominately urban areas. Moreover, the Bank of England is widely expected to raise interest rates further, which will also exert a cooling impact on the market if this feeds through to mortgage rates. “There are tentative signs of a slowdown, with the number of mortgages approved for house purchases falling back towards pre-pandemic levels in April and surveyors reporting some softening in new buyer enquiries. Furthermore, the unemployment rate remains close to 50-year lows. “There was a slowing in annual house price growth in England to 10.7%, from 11.6% in the previous quarter. “London remained the weakest performing UK region, with annual price growth slowing to 6.0%, from 7.4% in the previous quarter. “Part of the resilience is likely to reflect the current strength of the labour market, where the number of job vacancies has exceeded the number of unemployed people in recent months. “Wales saw a slowing in annual price growth to 13.4%, from 15.3% in the first quarter.

The average price of a UK home has climbed to a new record high, but the market is expected to slow as household incomes are squeezed.

Nationwide research found that predominantly rural areas had seen stronger price growth in recent years than urban areas. The figures are for the three months to June and show a different UK average price and annual percentage change to Nationwide's monthly house price statistics. The price of a typical UK home climbed to a new record high of £271,613, with average prices increasing by over £26,000 in the past year. The building society said the South West was also the strongest-performing region for house price growth during the pandemic, with a 27.7% increase, followed by Wales at 26.2% and the North West, where prices were up 25.8%. The South West saw the biggest rise in house prices in the UK in the second quarter of the year, new data from Nationwide shows. East Anglia, where annual price growth remained at 14.2%, came in second behind the South West, while Wales saw a slowing in annual price growth to 13.4%, from 15.3% in the first quarter, to take third place in the rankings.

UK house annual price growth “slowed modestly” to 10.7% in June leaving the average price of a home at £271613, according to Nationwide. This figure repre.

We’re seeing the first predictions of price drops, and while these are currently a few voices in the crowd, they’re highly unlikely to be the last.” “As the Bank of England raises rates to keep inflation under control, this also puts a dent in buyer enthusiasm. In the South West, growth over this period has hit an eye-watering 27.7%, and in Wales, it’s 26.2%. There comes a time when prices simply rise out of reach for anyone hoping to buy a first property or move significantly up the ladder. They don’t just face the problem that the rising price of everything from energy to food and fuel makes it difficult to stretch to a bigger mortgage, they also face the concern of mortgage lenders, who feed these figures into affordability calculations and conclude that they can’t afford the move. An awful lot depends on things we don’t yet know – including how high interest rates will go, how deep any recession might be, the impact it could have on jobs, and whether this is serious enough to cause real damage to the property market. Hargreaves Lansdown senior personal finance analyst Sarah Coles says: “Annual house price growth hit a high point in March, but has been dropping back ever since. Price growth in Northern Ireland was similar to last quarter at 11%. Meanwhile, Scotland saw a 9.5% year-on-year rise in house prices. What began as a ‘pinch’ on people’s finances has fast become a heavy burden on an increasing number of households. Average house prices have lifted by over £26,000 in the past year. “Part of the resilience is likely to reflect the current strength of the labour market, where the number of job vacancies has exceeded the number of unemployed people in recent months. Furthermore, the unemployment rate remains close to 50-year lows. As caution grips the market, the outlook for 2023 looks increasingly ominous.”

HOUSE price growth slowed in June, according to new figures released this morning, as the UK's ailing economy cuts rates in half compared to May.

However, today's figures show that this slowdown is yet to take effect." "In doing so, they will likely feel more in control of their options and better positioned to act if house prices do start to decline in the months to come." Annual growth has slowed in kind, leaving people wondering if they remain in a seller's market. "Further, prospective homebuyers will need to consider potential mortgage deals carefully, seeking out the best options in terms of the rates and loan-to-value offers available. Prospective buyers crushed by the market's pressures will need to carefully judge the market as prices won't drop "overnight". Those figures mean the market remains very much in sellers' corners, and new buyers will find it tough to navigate a "triple threat".

A year ago it was possible to find lenders offering an interest rate of less than 1 per cent but now the average interest rate on a two-year fixed deal is more than 3 per cent, according to Moneyfacts. To help contain inflation, the Bank of England has raised interest rates for the past five months in a row and rates are now at 1.25 per cent – the highest level since 2009. Inflation hit a 40-year-high of 9.1 per cent in May and is likely to go above 10 per cent later this year.

UK house prices hit a fresh high in June, but as interest rates start to rise, the market is cooling John Stepek assesses just how much of an effect higher ...

As always, the important thing for buying a house to live in is not whether prices will rise or fall next year, but your own personal circumstances: can you afford it? When rates go down the cost of borrowing goes down, so house prices go up; and when rates go up the cost of borrowing goes up and house prices go down. Some sellers will have put their homes on the market in anticipation of lower prices down the road. So you might be able to put in offers below the asking price more readily. As I said, the relationship is pretty mechanical. Now you can’t read across directly to the UK; Canada’s housing market has been wildly bubbly for a long time. And it’s probably worth assuming for the moment that interest rates will keep rising. That’s because you broadly need two things for a crash. Again, there are differences. There’s an almost mechanical relationship between house prices and interest rates. We had a total economic shutdown. We had a global pandemic.

Price growth continues to show signs of slowing amid “perfect storm” of record inflation, rising rates and the cost of living crisis.

Furthermore, the unemployment rate remains close to 50-year lows. Nationwide’s chief economist Robert Gardner, said: “There are tentative signs of a slowdown, with the number of mortgages ap-proved for house purchases falling back towards pre-pandemic levels in April and surveyors reporting some softening in new buyer enquiries. “Part of the resilience is likely to reflect the current strength of the labour market, where the number of job vacancies has exceeded the number of unemployed people in recent months.

However, it wasn’t long before he was accused of not consulting the industry most affected by the rule change – the recruitment and agency sector. Within weeks of its inauguration he was warning businesses it would only last until the following October. That he operated the scheme until September 2021 can be explained by a series of short-term extensions, forced on him by pleading business leaders. In other words, their impulse is discretionary and when they find the number of buyers has dried up, they don’t sell. The market is undoubtedly going to moderate as disposable incomes are squeezed and homebuyers become even more circumspect about making large outlays. London and the south-east have suffered from the Brexit-induced flight of continental workers since the 2016 referendum vote, depressing price growth in most central districts.
