After blogging last week about the variety of results that the housing market surveys produce, this week it’s the turn of the Government to tell us how house prices are doing and according to their figures prices are rising at their fastest rate since the autumn of 2007.
Annual house price inflation has reached as the Department for Communities and Local Government (DCLG) said prices in April were 10.1% higher than a year ago. The figures also show that UK house prices rose by another 0.4% in April alone, putting the average UK property at just over £207,000. Despite the rise in prices, the number of loans granted to home buyers fell by 9% in April to 40,000, if you believe this survey that is.

It’s Monday, the start of another working week and here at the HousesForCashUK.co.uk blog we’re going to pick up were we left off on Friday. The Office of Fair Trading (OFT) plan to shake up the online aspect of the estate agency industry by encouraging more ‘introducer’ businesses. These introducers are often websites where buyers and sellers can meet and conduct negotiations between themselves.
Introducer sales in the UK are currently in the minority, making up just 2% of the market, but across the pond such transactions are much more frequent, accounting for 15% of all property sales. Part of the plan from the OFT is to reduce the regulations applicable to introducers and therefore free them from the red-tape and costs associated with being classed as an estate agent. Of course this is great for competition and for consumer choice, but with deregulation can come issues of mis-selling with no rebuke. A workable balance is needed.

The UK Housing market does not look very promising at the moment with government reports indicating a significant slowdown in the housing market in the US. House prices have fallen considerably which can be good news for you if you are a prospective investor in real estate.
You can take advantage of the quick sale opportunities that are available such as sell and rent back schemes and look forward to a better future. However, you have to keep one thing in mind. You should be discerning enough to invest in a property that has good future prospects. Just because houses are available at alarmingly cheap rates, it should not prompt you to jump on to the bandwagon without giving it a proper thought.

The global economic meltdown has affected the property markets to a large extent leading to fluctuating real estate prices and uncertain rates of interest. There has been a lot of economic turmoit in the realty market in UK with the lengthy recession hitting the market badly and creating a pricing plateau.
There is a wealth of properties available with many trying to sell house and flat dwellings quickly before interest rates take a big rise. Owing to the current state of properties in UK, people are dreading to buy the houses at this point of time because of the increased realty rates all over the country after the downturn.

New rules are to be introduced by the Financial Services Authority (FSA) governing sale and rent back (SRB), the new restrictions will be implemented on 30th June this year. As part of the new rules, firms will be banned from using high-pressure sales tactics and exploitative advertising in an attempt to keep all the companies on a level-playing field anc keep customers protected.
The FSA’s full regulatory regime for the SRB market will also ban cold calling and letterbox dropping and put a stop to the use of emotive terms such as ‘fast sale’, ‘mortgage rescue’ and ‘cash quickly’. Plus, all risks must be clearly made out, a 14-day cooling-off period will be introduced and the customer will also have a security of tenure for a minimum of 5 years. Game changing and welcomed.

The number of people looking to sell and rent back their home may well increase if new research from FindaProperty is anything to go by. Their figures revealed that February saw the number properties available to rent fell to its lowest point since November ‘08, resulting in a 1.2% rent rise, talking the national average up to £814pcm.
Ultimately, the rising house prices and falling rental properties creates a gap that leaves the ever-increasing number of people unable to buy without a housing option. On the plus side, those already renting are more likely to stay put as there are few options available for movement, this means a longer-lasting tenant for landlords.

Amidst all the recent chatter, twitter and gossip about Government cut-backs, comes a bit of good news about some high risk home owners that are getting some well-needed financial support. Lincolnshire City Council have received £2m towards their Preventing Repossessions Fund that helps home-owners in the repossession hot spot keep hold of their property.
Repossession figures prove this area is in serious need of support with one family losing their home every day between July and September 2009. All told, 110 repossession orders were issued over that period leaving many considering a sale and rent back option but now they may have another way to keep what’s theirs.

According to Conservative estimations, the true number of repossessions in 2009 was double that which the Government reported. Figures from the Council of Mortgage Lenders revealed there were 48,000 repossessions in 2009 but if the Tories are correct this number should be closer to 100,000.
The reason why the Opposition thinks there were twice as many is because the Govt. haven’t included sell and rent back situations. This is when a property owner sells up and rents back their home from the buyer because they can no longer afford mortgage repayments. A lot of people in the UK avoid repossession and keep their home this way, so the Tories may be on to something.
