Half-Time Health Check: Is the UK Housing Market Set for a Smoother Ride in H2 2025?
This week, head of UK residential research Tom Bill is joined by financial market strategist Michael Brown from Pepperstone to assess the state of the UK housing market at the halfway point of the year. With the Bank of England cutting rates twice in the first six months of 2025, Michael explains why more cuts could be on the way before Christmas. They also unpack what the end of Donald Trump’s 90-day tariff pause could mean for the UK, and how recent weak economic data is shaping expectations for interest rates. Plus, they explore the government’s shrinking financial headroom ahead of this autumn’s Budget — and the tough decisions facing the Chancellor. Whether you’re buying, selling or re-mortgaging, this episode offers key insights into what’s coming next. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
