Re: Tory Watch
I am an anarchist and firmly believe the only way out of the mess is to completely dismantle the current system. I will always aline myself with those with the least. The current government are awful self serving parasites, the next lot won't be as bad, but the system will remain the same.tuffers#1 wrote: ↑Sun Jun 18, 2023 7:11 pmIm fineThe Mindsweep wrote: ↑Sun Jun 18, 2023 7:05 pmAre you OK?tuffers#1 wrote: ↑Sun Jun 18, 2023 6:54 pm

Re: Tory Watch
I wonder if it gives tuffet pause, that without exception every thread he participates in drifts quickly to a place where someone says “that doesn’t make any sense even as a response to the previous post”?

Re: Tory Watch
I get regular mortgage analysis through from UK Finance and can confirm that the majority of homeowners do not even have a mortgage (or any borrowing) secured against their home. That's not to say that they do not have plenty of other unsecured debt.TRUMP Plumbing wrote: ↑Sun Jun 18, 2023 11:12 amIs there any evidence for this? I would imagine lots of people have continually remortgaged and drawn down on the value of their homes, as we've been encouraged to do so ever since the 1980s.The Mindsweep wrote: ↑Sun Jun 18, 2023 9:52 am
Most will have plenty of equity, why should government support investment. Sell, get a more affordable property or use the profit from the sale to rent.
What mortgage holders are now experiencing has been a fact of life that the increasing amount of people who rent have been suffering with for years.
The problem for the wider economy is that the homeowners who will be most affected by this represent the consumption/spending peak of the population. When they scale back their spending, that will devastate the wider economy.
Don't be surprised if the "solution" to all of this is the introduction of 50+ year term mortgages.

Re: Tory Watch
It surprised me too. Buildplace (who are reputable and credible) do some brilliant analysis, but I just can't locate it right now. If I do I'll link to it on here.
This is from 2021:
www.ons.gov.uk/peoplepopulationandcommu ... o2015/2021
There were 24.9 million dwellings across England in 2021:
- 32.6% of these were owned outright
- 28% were owned with a mortgage or loan
- 20% were privately rented
- 17% were classed as social housing
- 2.4% included unoccupied dwellings
Those with mortgages are about to get screwed. And those who rent are already getting screwed (in London as much as 30% of their income is going on rent). So, as a society that is based upon consumption led growth, we've reached the end of the road. This is what has the money markets so spooked right now.
We're basically Japan now. Only, unlike them, we have immigrants to blame.

The older generation has paid off its mortgages, and that even accounts for many who refinanced to provide their children with deposits on their first home purchases. What is left is the prime working age population on whom the state most depends for taxable income, as they earn the salaries and spend the cash.

Id say an average of £1500 pcm for rent is more
Than 30 %

Re: Tory Watch
Of the 20% of dwellings that are Privately Rented - that's about 5m homes - I wonder what % of those are also mortgaged. I'm sure there's lots of BTL landlords also about to get hit with much higher borrowing costs. I'm not suggesting we feel sorry for over leveraged landlords, btw - rather that this will also hit tenants if the LL attempts to pass on their higher costs.Dunners wrote: ↑Mon Jun 19, 2023 11:11 amIt surprised me too.

Re: Tory Watch
That's a whole other sh*tshow and, short to medium term, the pain being felt by the BTL crowd could be devastating for private renters. We're beginning to see some try and sell, but most are still hanging on in the hope that they can tough it out (and pass on the financial pain to their tenants). Diminishing supply and increasing rents will erode tenants' spending/savings potential, which will further compound the economic turmoil.StillSpike wrote: ↑Mon Jun 19, 2023 11:49 amOf the 20% of dwellings that are Privately Rented - that's about 5m homes - I wonder what % of those are also mortgaged.

The housing teams within DLUHC are struggling for ideas. The Renters (Reform) Bill does contain some good stuff (the end of ASTs and S21 evictions etc), but there's a long way to go before that becomes an Act, and on its own it's just not enough.
And the 17% social housing stuff is diminishing too. We're still dealing with Jenrick's opening up of the UK's social housing market to for-profit providers, who are backed by US investment banks. And any new rented homes delivered through government grant now must include a right to buy through Shared Ownership for social housing tenants on Affordable Rent tenancies (which will mean tenants being encouraged to take on the owner's responsibility for a measly 10% share of equity which they can obtain through personal loans).

In fact I bet the Tories had the good sense to insert a clause in the agreement to claw it back in the event of unelected bureaucrats skuppering the deal.
