Hey guys,

Good news: the land registry figures out yesterday show a rise of 0.1%.

This is significant because land registry is the only major index that tracks government data and in particular the contract prices of property sold. While other indexes track only mortgage applications, this is the only index that has prices actually paid including cash buyers who have been very active recently.

Now before get too excited about the positive movement in the market, it’s important that you understand some fundamentals:

  • Unemployment is still rising,
  • SME (Small medium Enterprise) lending is still very low and extremely expensive,
  • GDP (Gross Domestic Product) is still in decline,
  • Mortgage lending is still very tight, and
  • There is still very little appetitite for competition between banks.

All this and many other factors still point to a bottoming out rather than a recovery. My prediction is that this time next year we’ll be in a broad-based recovery.

The important thing is that for house prices, the worst is over. We still may see prices drop a little here or there but mostly it will be bouncing along the bottom.
