About this listen

 Simon explores the current state of the UK property market, addressing concerns about a potential crash in 2026 following a recent decline in house prices. He discusses the cyclical nature of property markets and the impact of geopolitical tensions, particularly the Iran war, on inflation and interest rates., emphasising the importance of understanding supply and demand dynamics, and noting an increase in property supply as landlords look to sell amid changing regulations KEY TAKEAWAYS House prices in the UK have recently shown a slight decline of 0.5% in March 2026, contrasting with a 0.3% increase in February, indicating potential downward trends in the property market. The ongoing geopolitical tensions, particularly due to the Iran war, are contributing to economic uncertainty, leading to increased energy costs and inflation, which in turn affect interest rates set by the Bank of England. There is currently a surplus of properties for sale, driven by homeowners and landlords looking to exit the market due to concerns over new regulations, resulting in a buyer's market where prices may continue to decline. Despite the market's downward trend, there are significant opportunities for investors to secure properties at lower prices, especially as motivated sellers may be willing to accept offers below asking prices. BEST MOMENTS "The property market is like every other market. It's cyclical. Prices go up and they come down." "This latest blip in house prices is caused to the uncertainty due to the geopolitical tension caused by the Iran war." "If you have more demand than supply, prices go up. Simple economics." "When the market comes down, that's the time to get the very best deals."
