ZOOPLA UK House Price Index Sept 2022

Executive summary

  • Spike in 2 and 5 year fixed mortgage rates hits demand, down a third since mini budget
  • Sales still being agreed at slower rate, from cash buyers and those with cheap loans -pipeline of nearly 293,000 sales in progress
  • No signs of any impact on pricing expected in Q4
  • Outlook for 2023 depends largely on trajectory for mortgage rates
  • Sustained 6% mortgage rates would lead to double-digit price falls eroding ‘paper’ gains over pandemic but few negative equity cases
  • More likely outcome is a fall in mortgage rates towards 4% and a modest decline in house prices of up to 5% over 2023 with 1m sales
  • Robust labour market and scarcity of supply will support pricing but markets in southern England to feel the greatest impact

PODCAST: https://anchor.fm/fife-properties/episodes/FP-TV-EP-46-Is-Fife-Heading-Towards-a-House-Price-Crash-e13s29j
