First-time buyers are struggling to climb onto the property ladder and they are the lifeblood of the future market.

While there is no doubt that some first-time buyers are finding it more difficult to climb onto the property ladder, we must also appreciate that there has been a large jump in the number of investors. Even if houses were more affordable for first-time buyers, are we starting to see a change in the UK employment market with more people mobile and looking for short-term rental arrangements?

Not surprised in the least to see a reduction in the number of owner occupied homes in England. If house price inflation continues at a greater rate than wage inflation it is difficult to see this situation changing in the foreseeable future.
