Bank of England Base Rate Cut: What It Means for Borrowers 📉 Today’s 25bps cut to 4.75% by the Bank of England brings some relief for borrowers, especially first-time buyers and movers who may find homes more affordable ahead of the stamp duty changes next March. 🏠For those remortgaging from historically low fixed rates, this reduction could ease the transition. Mortgage advisers, this is a key time to connect with clients. 🔍With the recent Budget and US events, it’s unclear if we’ll see further cuts, but we’ll be watching closely. #AfinBank #BaseRate #BankOfEngland #Homebuyers #Finance Jason Oakley, Alan Davison, Monica Velasquez, Charles Resnick,Patrick F.

Check out our very own Nicholas Mendes featured in the Daily Express, sharing some of his insights on what he believes will happen to interests rates this year. “By the end of 2024, I anticipate the Bank of England will implement two rate cuts of 0.25 percent each, with a possibility for a third cut, reflecting an optimistic outlook for the UK economy. These measures are expected to stimulate growth, enhance consumer and business confidence, and maintain inflation targets, setting the stage for a robust economic recovery and financial stability.” Click the link below to read the complete article.👇 https://lnkd.in/e9pitBbD #johncharcol #mortgagebroker #mortgagebrokers #mortgagebrokerage #remortgage #remortgaging #fixedrates #fixedrate #producttransfer #pt #switchlenders #advice #mortgageholders #lenders #mortgage #mortgagelending #mortgagebrokeruk #mortgages #mortgageadvice #mortgageadvisor #mortgagelending #mortgagebrokeruk #firsthomebuyers #firsttimebuyer #firsthome

📉 Interest Rate Cut Alert: The Bank of England has lowered its base rate from 5% to 4.75%! This is great news for borrowers, especially the 600,000+ on tracker mortgages who’ll see an immediate reduction in payments. Variable-rate holders may also benefit, depending on lender response. While further cuts may be on the horizon, borrowers are encouraged to work with brokers to lock in favourable rates and consider fixed-rate options for stability. This latest move offers a bit more breathing room for homeowners and may help first-time buyers get closer to owning a home. #InterestRates #BankOfEngland #MortgageRates #HomeOwnership #FirstTimeBuyers #FinancialRelief #PropertyMarket #PropertyNews

🏡 Bank of England Holds Base Rate at 5% The Bank of England has held the base rate steady at 5%, reflecting concerns around core inflation. While the housing market remains tight, we’re seeing increased buyer interest and softening mortgage rates, with more competitive deals like Santander’s sub-4% 2-year fixed mortgage. At PLG Consultants, we’re optimistic that easing borrowing costs will continue to create opportunities for buyers and sellers alike.
