2013 2 MARKET UPDATE

A MIXED YEAR IN UK PROPERTY

It’s been a year of conflicting fortunes in the UK property market. Both economic and political factors have been at play and, depending on the location and the price bracket, some quite different trends are emerging. They include strong price growth in the higher reaches of the prime property market in and around London, and a drop in sales and value among homes affected by this year’s change in stamp duty rates.

Any review of 2012 needs to start with a look at the broader economic picture. Disappointing news towards the end of 2012 saw the IMF dramatically downgrade its forecasts for the UK and predict that the economy would shrink by 0.4%. This was oﬀset, though, by IMF expectations of 1.1% growth for 2013. Any sense of optimism has remained cautious, however, and this is being reﬂected in both the current performance of the UK residential market and its outlook for the year ahead.

London v. the rest of the UK The 7% stamp duty eﬀect

Data from Nationwide shows that the market as a whole In March 2012, the rate of stamp duty payable on £2m+ is continuing to stall, with average property prices homes rose from 5% to 7%. The effect was dramatic and across the UK falling by 1.4% during the first three immediate. In the months following the Budget, Knight quarters of 2012.

This also Central London, though, is still bucking trends and precipitated a significant drop in the price of homes setting new records month on month. Over the same worth between £2m and £3m, with an average fall of period, prime properties in the capital have seen rises 7%. Such a drop in activity and values will have of around 10% as demand remains particularly strong in inevitably impacted stamp duty receipts, raising the the city’s most exclusive neighbourhoods. A key and question of how many new property taxes can be continuing factor in that growth is the influx of introduced before any net gain for the Treasury is international buyers who see the city as a safe haven wiped out. for their capital. The prime markets outside London are facing more The consensus seems to challenges and we have seen drops approaching 5% in the rest of England and Wales, and slightly smaller falls be that this mixed bag at around 3% in Scotland. Yet even outside London some hotspots are bucking the downward trend. Prices of news will prevail for in and around Oxford, for example, are up 2.3% on the some time to come; year, while prices around Guildford have risen 2%. And country homes in the £4m+ bracket have seen there is likely to be sustained growth. These rises are partly fuelled by the little change in the UK increase in buyers from London who are looking to take advantage of record high prices by selling and moving housing market until to the country. confidence in the economic recovery improves.

The demise of the ‘mansion tax’ Our country 2012 was also the year when the mooted mansion tax was roundly rejected by the Chancellor. Originally a Lib department Dem proposal, this policy would have seen owners of properties worth more than £2m paying an annual 1% levy.

A few areas are bucking the trend – notably the best London neighbourhoods and prime country homes – but they feel very much the exception rather than the rule. And even these properties are being affected to some degree by the stamp duty increase. The consensus seems to be that this mixed bag of news will prevail for some time to come; there is likely to be little change in the UK housing market until confidence in the economic recovery improves.

Nigel Mitchell Regional Chairman 4 MARKET SENTIMENT

MAKING SENSE OF MARKET SENTIMENT

Conﬁdence, or the lack of it, has become a frequent topic of discussion in recent years, whether in relation to the economy as a whole or the property market in particular. Since it was launched in 2009, Knight Frank/Markit’s House Price Sentiment Index (HPSI) has been charting levels of household conﬁdence and using it to predict future house price trends. What’s striking is how accurately that sentiment then translates into market data, so it can be a valuable tool for those considering a move or monitoring the performance of their property or region.

HOW THE HPSI WORKS Based on the opinions of 1,500 18-64 year olds across the UK, the HPSI gives a view on current household conﬁdence rather than historic evidence from transactions or mortgage activity. Any ﬁgure below 50 indicates that perceived prices are falling, and over 50 that they are rising.

The overall picture The story from region to region

When taking the UK as a whole, the HPSI has been on Perhaps the most surprising news from recent surveys a resolutely downward trend; heralding falls in house has been London’s first dip into negative territory. prices every month for the past two and a half years. Household sentiment recorded a perceived fall in Taking the October 2012 findings as a benchmark, property prices, scoring 49.5. every region came in at under 50, with the average at 45. The outlook for house prices also fell sharply The biggest falls were recorded in the North West (40.5) towards the end of 2012, but rallied to a modest overall and East Midlands (40.5), compared to the South East rise predicted for the next 12 months. Only three of the and the West Midlands which were two of the few 11 regions were expecting prices to rise in the coming regions with a gentle trend upwards. The South East year. reached 49.1 in October, the highest it had been since May, and West Midlands scored 45. it’s a measure of the Scotland’s year was mainly about growing confidence and its HPSI figure in October stood at 49. Wales, by lack of confidence contrast, finished on 41.9 after registering marked dips that even London and and rises in confidence throughout 2012. the South East have The region of Yorkshire and the Humber and also the North East saw sharp swings in confidence over the downgraded their third quarter of 2012, but ended with figures towards the middle of the UK-wide spread at 43.4 and 44.8 expected price increases respectively. to the lowest HPSI since Overall, it is a state of flux, with confidence moving the start of the year. from negative to positive and back again in the space of a few months. This reflects the general state of uncertainty that is prevailing in the UK and also internationally, of course, but it is interesting to see how householders are feeling when they look ahead. It is only then that we start to see a more coherent trend emerging. MARKET SENTIMENT 5

The outlook The inﬂuencing factors

We also asked householders to give us their predictions It seems that falling prices or, at best, slowing growth for property prices over the coming year. The ‘future have been the order of the year across the country. As HPSI’ as it’s called saw a net decrease in October. expected, the continuing run of bad economic news has impacted confidence in both current house prices and Towards the end of 2012, earlier optimism had started their prospects for 2013. Poor forecasts from the ebbing away in the 11 regions across the UK. Only three International Monetary Fund and worries about the recorded expectations for house price rises in the third fiscal austerity plans are two of the factors that have quarter, compared to six regions in the first half of the clearly shaped the way the HPSI has performed.

Around 24% of households anticipated a rise in a measure of the lack of confidence that even London the value of their home over the next 12 months, while and the South East have downgraded their expected 23% expected a fall. This represented a month-on-month price increases to the lowest HPSI since the start of fall from 53.5 to 50.5, the sharpest drop in this index for the year. a year.

In another shift, London (59.8) has been overtaken by the South East (60.8) in terms of predicted growth – this is the ﬁrst time this has happened since 2010. Households in both regions are expecting a healthy rise in prices over the next year, but the future HPSI reading for London has dropped back into negative territory (49.5) after spending most of 2012 above 50.

The only other region expecting price rises was the West Midlands – its reading of 53.2 in October was the highest for a year.

At the other end of the scale, the least optimistic region was the North West. Following on from monthly falls throughout 2012, the October ﬁgure was 42.1.

In the East Midlands, meanwhile, it was more of a mixed year, with the ﬁgure swinging from a high of 55.7 in April to a low of 44.5 in October. 6 HASLEMERE 01428 770560 | [email protected] | www.knightfrank.co.uk/haslemere
