Sam Harhat responds to Bank of England Mortgage Data
Speaking in response to the recent Bank of England Mortgage Data published on 31st January, Sam Harhat, Head of Financial Services said:
“December was yet more proof that people refused to let politics put their lives on hold in the latter stages of 2019.
“If the market was defined by anything last year, it was pragmatism and this showed through unequivocally in December.
“January has followed in much the same vein, with the new climate of political certainty unleashing a lot of pent-up demand.
“We’re expecting mortgage transactions to continue to pick up during the Spring, with the aspirational buyers that have been missing for so long taking up the slack.
“Many would-be buyers and sellers who have played it safe in recent years look set to make their move in 2020.”
