Summary

Is the property market about to crash? When the market starts to get heated, people get excited. There are those who take action and make money, but others get really nervous.    What happens when we reach the top of the market? Is it a good time to buy?  In this episode Rob & Rob are going to cover just that! And they’re sharing some interesting examples of what the numbers look like when you invest at the top of the market.  So, is it wise to invest at the peak?  Tune in to find out.    In the news  This week’s news story is from The Guardian and the headline reads ‘HSBC offers sub-1% mortgage as interest rate war intensifies’.  So, if you’ve got a 40% deposit, are a residential buyer and got a good credit history and you want a two-year fixed with HSBC, then you’re in luck because you can now get a mortgage for under 1%.  The last time they offered a rate this low was five years ago, and HSBC aren’t the only ones. It seems a number of lenders are battling it out for the lowest interest rates.  So, it’s certainly the time to be re-mortgaging or moving house right now.    Hub Extra  This week’s Hub Extra comes from Rob D and whilst it won’t help you decide when to buy your next property, it is a great piece of entertainment.   It’s a TV show called ‘Ted Lasso’ on Apple TV and it’s a comedy about an American football coach who gets hired to manage a British premier league team even though he has no experience what-so-ever.   It’s quite a daft programme, but Rob D thinks it’s really funny and worth the watch if you need an unwind over the weekend.     Let’s get social  We’d love to hear what you think of this week’s Property Podcast over on Facebook, Twitter or Instagram. You might even have a topic you’d like us to cover in the future - if so, pop us a message on social and we’ll see what we can do.  Make sure you’ve liked and subscribed to our YouTube channel where we upload new content every week!   If that wasn’t enough, you can also join our friendly property community on the Property Hub forum.  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
