Welcome to the August Newsletter.
The housing market in July proved to be quite challenging after the 0.5% interest rate rise at the end of June followed by another 0.25% in July. Now we are in August there are signs of an improvement. There is a feeling interest rates have peaked, and some lenders have indicated they will reduce rates soon.
Although prices have fallen there are signs of returning confidence to the market with a good selection of homes being offered and attracting good levels of interest.
We can look forward to a more buoyant September market.
