A 0.2% price drop can grab headlines, but it can also distract you from the only question that matters in property: do the numbers actually work today? We’re joined by Anthony McMullen from Homemaker Properties to unpack what “housing market resilience” really means when mortgage rates, affordability checks, and stamp duty are doing the heavy lifting behind the scenes.


If you’re selling an investment property, we talk candidly about why buyers may not pay a premium for “tenants in situ,” and how targeting first-time buyers or owner-occupiers can completely change the outcome.


We also dig into HMRC’s growing focus on compliance and what a tax clampdown could look like for the property sector. More enforcement and less clarity can create real risk for landlords who are disorganized, under-advised, or relying on outdated assumptions. Our takeaway is simple: compliance is no longer optional admin, it’s part of the investment strategy.


Finally, we break down the student rental league table and the reality of student rental yields once you factor in voids, management, and operating costs. We discuss how purpose-built student blocks and shifting demand are changing the competitive landscape, and why in some areas a low-hassle family let can look more attractive than a marginal HMO. If you want practical, current UK property market insight without the hype, this one is for you.
