Why UK Mortgage Rates Aren’t as High as You Think
Merryn Talks Money - Un pódcast de Bloomberg
Categorías:
In an earlier episode of Merryn Talks Money, reporter Neil Callanan joined the podcast to talk house prices. It’s fair to say his outlook for the UK housing market was not optimistic. It is, he said, entirely possible that prices across the UK will end this cycle down 40% in real terms (adjusted for inflation). This week, Bloomberg Opinion writer Marcus Ashworth joined Merryn Somerset Webb and John Stepek to make a different case. He contends that the mortgage rates actually paid by buyers are nothing like the ones you see on the panicked pages of Sunday newspapers. Not only that, but UK planning rules have kept supply far too tight, he argues, turning it into a “cash-led” market.Sign up to John Stepek's daily newsletter Money Distilled. https://www.bloomberg.com/account/newsletters/uk-wealthAnd sign up to be in the audience of our live podcast taping at Bloomberg Invest: Strategies For Wealth Creation: bloom.bg/3kTCmbH See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
