Interest rates have risen and the impact of changes are increasingly significant for people looking to buy property or relocate to a new home.
Consequently, the cost of living and rising rates have dominated the feeling of the nation in this often trying time – yet all is not lost for everybody.
If we look deeper into the state of the property market there is still plenty that investors can do to maximise the potential for returns in current market conditions.
The rise in interest rates is not an issue that negatively affects the whole property market – it is something which mostly impacts borrowers and those in the homeowner segment who rely on large loans to value mortgages.
The investment segment is quite separate to this and those in this segment experience different impacts because of changes in the wider economy – many landlords who do not rely on debt are witnessing growth in their portfolios.
