Growing your wealth while inflation is soaring is a serious challenge. Most investors will feel like they are running just to stand still.

This means that now, perhaps more than ever, it is essential to check what you are paying to invest and cut the cost where you can.

The Latest Quarterly Data Might Surprise You!

 

In my articles on the Fife property market, I like to provide an insight into the real story of what is happening in our local (and national) property market and address the misconceptions that some of the media have been spreading.

 

Despite almost daily reports of a housing market crash since September 2022, the data shows that the UK (and Fife) property market is gingerly doing OK.

 

So, let’s dive into the stats and start with the life blood of the housing market – new properties coming on to the market.

UK House Price Index Scotland & Fife February 2023  (Watch/Listen)

PODCAST: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/fife-properties/episodes/UK-House-Price-Index-Scotland–Fife-February-2023-e22nnpe

Headline statistics for February 2023

 The average price of a property in Scotland was £180,287

The annual price change of a property in Scotland was 1.0%

The monthly price change of a property in Scotland was -2.6%

The index figure for Scotland (January 2015 = 100) was 133.6

 

Average house prices in Scotland increased by 1.0% in the 12 months to February 2023. This remained unchanged from the 12 months to January 2023 and was slower than the average UK house price annual inflation of 5.5% in the 12 months to February 2023. Scotland’s annual house price inflation has generally been slowing since the recent peak of 13.8% in the 12 months to April 2022.

On a non-seasonally adjusted basis, average house prices in Scotland decreased by 2.6% between January 2023 and February 2023, compared with a decrease of 2.5% during the same period 12 months ago. On a seasonally adjusted basis, average house prices in Scotland decreased by 0.3% between January 2023 and February 2023.

Comparing the provisional volume estimate for December 2021 with the provisional volume estimate for December 2022, the volume of transactions decreased by 12.2% in Scotland and increased by 30.5% in the UK.

In Scotland, detached houses showed the highest annual percentage change out of all property types, increasing by 2.0% in the 12 months to February 2023 to £325,000. Flats and maisonettes showed the lowest annual percentage change, which decreased by 0.5% in the 12 months to February 2023 to an average price of £123,000.

The highest annual percentage change was in Moray, where average house prices increased by 10.1% in the 12 months to February 2023 to £188,000. The lowest annual percentage change was in City of Aberdeen, where average house prices decreased by 6.6% in the 12 months to February 2023 to £132,000.

As with other indicators in the housing market, which typically fluctuate from month to month, it is important not to put too much weight on one month’s set of house price data.

FP TV EP 138 FIND THE GAP: How to create the buy-to-let niche that’s perfect for you

Buy-to-let is undergoing a massive transformation right now. Poor-quality homes are getting squeezed out by tightening legislation, and short-term profiteering has fallen away through changing tax laws. As a result, many landlords have sold up. But if you’re in it for the long term, buy-to-let can still be a highly profitable route to financial security, particularly if you can serve an overlooked segment of the local rental market.

EP67 THE WEALTH CREATION SHOW: What is The True Meaning of Wealth

One of the greatest driving forces in the world is the desire for wealth.

True wealth may mean seeking deeper relationships, more personal growth or ways to create more meaning in life. Achieving true wealth may mean possessing the ability to enjoy the small, ordinary pleasures of life.

The terms money and wealth may appear to mean the same thing. But while many people emphasise the importance of having an abundance of money, few understand the meaning of true wealth.

What does achieving wealth mean to you and does wealth and money hold a different meaning?

Luckily, you don’t need to head back to school to understand this as Richard Cook and one of the UK’s most successful property investors, Jim Parker is on hand to discuss the true meaning of wealth, the differences between wealth and money as well as insights into wealth creation.

FIFE PROPERTY MARKET: Is now a good time to buy, or should people wait? (Watch/Read/Listen)

PODCAST:  https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/fife-properties/episodes/FIFE-PROPERTY-MARKET-Is-now-a-good-time-to-buy–or-should-people-wait-e22am8f

 

As we go into the second quarter of 2023, there is significant uncertainty in the UK economy, leading to uncertainty in the property market.

 

The number one issue is the fight against inflation and the cost-of-living crisis. The Bank of England is working hard to decrease inflation, and hopefully, in summer, we should see British inflation coming down. From that, we should expect interest rates to come down later in the year (and that is what the money markets believe with the 5-year swap rates).

Zoopla UK House Price Index – February 2023

 

Executive summary

  • The housing market continues to experience a soft repricing
  • Annual inflation slows to 4.1%, prices 1% lower than in October 2022
  • Market conditions at the end of Q1 are better than many had expected – buyers and sellers are striking deals at an increasing rate
  • We expect 500,000 sales completions in H1 2023 meaning we are on track for 1m sales, potentially even higher in 2023
  • Sales activity is being supported by 65% more homes for sale compared to March 2022 and falling mortgage rates
  • We find a shift in sales towards markets with better value for money and expect the inner London flats market to see more activity in 2023
  • High rental inflation will continue to support first-time buyer demand
