Stirling & Clackmannan Property POV

For the month of July, the housing market in Clackmannanshire and Stirlingshire shows mixed signals. House sales have experienced a slight decline compared to the previous month, reflecting a cautious sentiment among buyers amid interest rates that remain high.

Among our Estate Agency customers, 3 bedroom homes continue to be the most sought after but it appears that some buyers are delaying their house purchases and will restart their search once interest rates finally begin their anticipated drop.

Meanwhile, the mortgage market is also facing challenges, as lenders have tightened their criteria and increased rates, impacting affordability for potential homeowners. The recent general election caused uncertainty amongst lenders, who are now waiting for the August interest rate announcement from the Bank of England.

However, the rental market remains robust, with demand continuing to outstrip supply, leading to higher rental prices in both regions. This is particularly noticeable in areas like Stirling, where the influx of students and professionals has bolstered the rental sector.

Overall, while the rental market thrives, the sales and mortgage sectors are navigating a period of adjustment.
