In this episode, hosts Steven Clark and Nick Ponty are joined by Davy Hutton to discuss the latest market updates for August 2024. They cover a range of topics affecting the Scottish property market, including inflation, economic outlook, property market dynamics, planning system inefficiencies, and the impact of government policies. UK Inflation and Taylor Swift Effect: UK inflation stayed at 2% in June, partly attributed to Taylor Swift's tour increasing demand and prices in local services, particularly hotels. The Bank of England's base rate is 5.25%. Despite expectations for a cut, the "Taylor Swift effect" and other factors create uncertainty. Economic Outlook and Government Stability: Discussion on the fragility of the economy and potential for a positive shift post-election with Keir Starmer's leadership. Reflection on the previous government's impact and optimism with the new administration. Property Market Dynamics: Landlords are selling properties, affecting the rental market as they are not being bought by other landlords. House prices and rents are rising due to inflation and market demand, with regional variations noted. Areas like the West End of Glasgow are performing well due to lower mortgage levels and high cash transactions. Planning System and Government Intervention: Inefficiencies in the planning system and the need for reform are discussed. Importance of competent and trustworthy government intervention is emphasized. Buy-to-Let Mortgages and Investment Strategies: The number of new buy-to-let mortgages has halved, with fewer landlords entering the market. Larger companies and cash buyers remain active, impacting the market differently. Debate on the benefits of investment properties and effective debt management. Affordability and Rental Market: Home affordability in Scotland has decreased, with the average home now costing 5.2 times the typical salary, up from 3.8 times in 2003. Despite rising rents, affordability remains a challenge. The balance between protecting tenants and not over-regulating landlords is discussed. Airbnb and Short-Term Rentals: Potential impact of banning Airbnb in Edinburgh is debated, considering the balance between tourism benefits and housing availability for residents. The impact of the internet on the reach and influence of short-term rentals on local communities is discussed. ---------------------------------- Follow Prime Property Auction on Instagram: Prime Property Auction: https://www.instagram.com/primepropertyauctions/ John: https://www.instagram.com/john_property_auctioneer/ Luis: https://www.instagram.com/luis_property_auctioneer/ Visit Prime Property Auction website: https://primepropertyauctions.co.uk/ ------------------------------------ Follow us on all of our social media accounts: https://linktr.ee/scottishpropertypodcast **DISCLAIMER**Please do your own due diligence on any of our guests you may decide to do business with.
