November 2022 mortgage approvals (Source: BoE) fell to 46,000, the lowest since April 2011 excluding the pandemic.  https://www.mortgagefinancegazette.com/uncategorised/mortgage-approval-numbers-sink-close-2022-boe-04-01-2023/ (The 10 year average is 67,000).  Is it a blip, a shock reaction to the mini budget? Or is it a sign of things to come?  In this video we'll discuss that and the effect...

The 2022 housing market caught everyone by surprise.  2023 will see the consequences of that, and will be the most difficult year to move home for a generation. 2024 will get better, but for those of you who need to move in 2023, here's what you need to know.  Buyers: make sure you have a mortgage in principle lined up if you want to be in with a chance of bagging a bargain.
