Could the current Housing Market uncertainty mean once again.. it’s Extend Now – Move Later!!

A woman's head with blonde hair is seen at the bottom of the image, looking upwards with blue eyes. The background is white, and multiple black question marks of varying sizes appear above her head, indicating confusion or curiosity.

There is ongoing constant housing industry ‘talk’ to the fore right now, reference the improvement – or otherwise – as to the housing market outlook for the remainder of this current year ..and indeed… on into next year too!!

Market uplift slowing…

It’s understood that house prices have risen only slightly so far this year, and that hopes of a significant market ‘uplift’ are probably already slowing currently, due to the ‘ins and outs’ of mortgage rate levels going on into the year ahead …and probably for sure ..into next year too!

Highlighted Andrew Asaam, Homes Director at Lloyds Banking Group reference mortgage rates online recently “Despite indications that mortgage rates are past their peak, and that rates are reducing, they’re still up from the low levels that people had become used to.     The squeeze on available cash and uncertainty that consumers are facing, will result in a smaller housing market in 2024, and we expect house prices to fall between 2% and 4% this year”.

Stephen Maunder of Which added, “House prices have risen slightly so far this year, but hopes of a significant market uplift have been delayed by stubbornly high mortgage rates”. 

Worthwhile consideration

With these variable and quite challenging housing market outlook scenarios in mind… and the seemingly fluctuating outlook reference property pricing still very much ‘on the scene’ – so to speak…..we, at Mint would tend to point out that

….gaining potential added sales price value if possible – by way of a  a well-planned and cost effective home extension or renovation  –  is surely, right now, both a sound and MOST worthwhile ‘going forward’ consideration!

Extend Now – Move Later

As we, at Mint Builders have said many times before … we suggest it IS right to say it again now  ….Extend Now – Move Later – a fair approach indeed, in view of the current wavering state of the housing market outlook!

Home project – add value

As things are ….we suggest, that adding value to your property with a home project …is  a most worthwhile and sound idea… both…. for the ‘here and now’…. and, also, on into next Spring …..and even beyond too! All very much worth considering…..!!
