TPP499: October Market Update

Unless you’ve been living under a rock, you’ll know the last week has been a hectic one for investors.  The Mini Budget (and subsequent backtracking), the removal of mortgage products, shocking headlines and political positioning... it’s been hard to stay on track for most of us.  So there’s really never been a better time for a Market Update!  If you want to know the impact of the pound dropping, understand how quantitative easing has returned and why so many mortgage products were pulled from the market, Rob & Rob have all the answers you need.  Stay tuned until the end as they tell listeners how they’re adjusting their own strategies in the face of all these changes (and also share details about next week's 500th episode). Enjoy!  Here’s all the links you need;  Mini Budget fallout  QE is back (and how this impacted the falling pound)  Mortgage products pulled  The market slowdown continues  Savills commentary on the mortgage market  Prices are falling in the hottest markets  Rents are rising, rate of growth is peaking  Labour announces ‘Renters Charter’  Scottish house builder puts rental schemes on hold after rent freeze announcement  Let’s get social We’d love to hear what you think of this week’s Property Podcast over on Facebook, Twitter or Instagram.
