HOUSING POLICY PUSH The Government has now put housing firmly at the top of the domestic policy agenda. Theresa May, the Prime Minister, hosted a housing summit at Number 10, and now attention is turning to the Budget on November 22nd. Meanwhile, house prices are up 2% across the UK, and the price declines for existing homes seen in prime central London over the last year are starting to abate.

Key facts Oct 2017Average UK house prices are up 2% on the year in Q3, according to Nationwide

Prime central London prices for existing homes were unchanged in September, taking the annual rate of decline to -4.6%, from -6.7% in January

Prime English country home prices dipped by -0.1% in Q3, taking the annual rate of growth to 0.2%

Prime Scottish house prices edged up by 0.2% in Q3, with an annual change in values of -0.3%

Average residential prices in London have shown a year-on-year fall for the first time in eight years, but even across this market, there are strong local differences in pricing. Data from the Land Registry, which is calculated on a different basis to the Nationwide, shows double-digit price growth in Camden and Hackney in the year to August 2017.

Overall price growth across the country has been underpinned by low mortgage rates for those who have access to equity or a deposit, but all eyes are now turning to the Bank of England as its Monetary Policy Committee gears up to decide whether to raise interest rates early next month. Swap and LIBOR rates, the money market rates that determine fixed-rate pricing, have already started to rise. However, even if there is a quarter-point rise, the base rate will still be ultra-low by historical standards,, and mortgage rates are likely to remain attractive compared to long-term norms.

A lack of supply of housing has also been a key factor in pricing in some parts of the market. Indeed, the delivery of housing is now at the top of the domestic political agenda. Data suggests that net additions of new homes in England rose to above 200,000 in 2016/17, a key milestone, but some way off the 250,000 Government target. The Communities Minister announced earlier this month that there would be an extra £10 billion in funding for Help to Buy, while Theresa May pledged an additional £2 billion for Affordable Housing.

THE BIRMINGHAM REPORT

Economic and housing market overview The Bank of England has voted to keep interest rates unchanged for the 13th consecutive month, but the account of the meeting held by rate-setters attracted attention, particularly on the foreign exchange markets. The ‘minutes’ of the rate-setters’ meeting, published after every rate decision, indicated that the Bank may be preparing to raise rates – and this caused the pound to climb to $1.35 against the US dollar, up from around $1.25 at the beginning of the year, although this is down from $1.70 in 2014.

RENEWED INTEREST IN INTEREST RATES The Bank of England has given more ‘forward guidance’, indicating that it may move to raise interest rates from their record low in the coming months, although there is no guarantee that this will happen. Meanwhile, house price growth across the country continues to moderate, while the prime London market shows signs of regaining momentum.

Key facts Sept 2017Average annual house price growth slowed to 2.1% in August, down from 2.9% in July

Prime central London prices for exisiting homes dipped 0.2% in August, taking the annual change to -5.4%

Average UK rents rose by 1.6% in the year to August, down from 1.8% in July

UK interest rates held at 0.25% for 13th consecutive month

The money markets now assess that the likelihood of a rate rise in November is at around 60%. However, the Bank has indicated several times over the last few years that rate-setters were minded to raise rates, and no increase has yet materialised.

In a recent speech, Mark Carney, the Bank of England Governor, indicated that even if rates did start to rise, it would be a gradual process. He said: “Any prospective increases in Bank Rate would be expected to be at a gradual pace and to a limited extent, and to be consistent with monetary

policy continuing to provide substantial support to the economy.”

While the UK central bank’s direct mandate is to use monetary policy to manage inflation, policymakers will also have one eye on Brexit, as they need to manage the potential economic effects of the UK’s withdrawal from Europe.

The discussion around increasing interest rates comes as mortgage rates have hit near record-lows. While accessing a mortgage still requires a substantial deposit, those who have access to this finance can take advantage of rates as low as 1.6% fixed for five years.

Meanwhile, house price growth continues to moderate. Average values across the UK dipped by 0.1% in August, according to Nationwide, taking annual growth to 2.1%. A breakdown of regional house price growth calculated by the Office for National Statistics, shows that the East of England and the Midlands are leading the growth, with London showing the most modest level of annual growth. However, this comes after several years of very strong growth in the capital, and the market remains highly localised, with prices rising strongly in some boroughs.

Economic and housing market overview In what was a widely expected move, the Bank of England raised interest rates in November. The official bank rate has been lifted from 0.25% to 0.5%, the first increase since July 2007.

This will be the first time some borrowers will have ever experienced an increase in their mortgage payments.

However, what happens next is likely to set the tone. Last month’s move was simply a reversal of the cut in August of last year following the vote to leave the European Union and means that the base rate is still at a historically low level. Another rate rise in the coming months would likely have a firmer impact on sentiment. It is also worth noting that while economists are forecasting more rate rises, they expect that the base rate will be at 1% by 2020 – still near record low rates.

All eyes will now turn to the Chancellor, Philip Hammond, as he prepares to deliver the Autumn Budget on November 22nd, the first major set piece following this year’s snap General Election in June. Housing has leapt up the political agenda in recent months and is likely to feature heavily.

The property industry’s wish-list for the Chancellor is extensive covering both planning and policy. The Budget may be the opportunity for the Government to announce additional changes or support to further boost supply.

Official housebuilding figures released this month by DCLG showed annual housing supply in England amounted to 217,350 net additional dwellings in 2016-17, up 15% on 2015-16.

Stamp duty, which is payable on all residential purchases, remains another sticking point. It is seen as a barrier to moves up and down the housing ladder, as well as for those saving for a deposit. There is speculation that first-time buyers may see some change in stamp duty rules, which emerged as new data shows that the levy raised £9.4bn in the year to September, taking receipts to a record high.
