Market Update: Interest Rates and Housing Outlook
With the Autumn Budget approaching, it comes as little surprise that the Bank of England has chosen to hold interest rates at 4% this month.
Maintaining stability remains the priority for now, though there is increasing expectation of a rate cut before the end of the year, or by early 2026 at the latest.

Market sentiment is becoming more positive as inflation continues to ease, paving the way for gradual reductions in the base rate over time.
According to Rightmove, average UK house prices are projected to rise by 22.2% by 2030, with annual growth expected to peak at 5% in 2028 and 5.5% in 2029.
In the nearer term, there are encouraging signs for borrowers.
Mortgage rates are starting to edge down, with some lenders introducing more competitive products as they look to attract business before year-end.
The average two-year fixed rate now stands at 4.44%, compared with 4.95% a year ago — a steady downward trend, albeit slower than some had anticipated.
Additionally, a number of lenders are now offering higher income multiples, giving buyers increased borrowing potential and greater flexibility when purchasing a home.
With competition among lenders intensifying and attractive new deals emerging, now is an opportune moment for those considering a move or remortgage to review their options.
Acting promptly could help secure a more favourable rate before the market shifts again.
