Supplement 26 Jan 25 - This Guy

Propenomix with Adam Lawrence

****PLEASE SHARE AND HELP TO SPREAD THE WORD OF PROPENOMIX****

This week in the ONLY agenda-free UK Property and Macroeconomic roundup:

The deep dive goes for the trifecta this week - an interesting but strange Hamptons report about the rental market - a fascinating piece about a Community Rent Model - and some musings on the “big debate” I was involved in this week.

We also have, in the Macro section:

(Un)employment - that week of the month. Weak?

Confidence (or more accurately, lack thereof)

The flash PMIs - my favourite real time indicator of economic health (or sickness)

The gilts and swaps - a relatively idyllic week

And in the deep dive......

Hamptons make sense of the English Housing Survey data alongside their own, particularly around the percentage of rent paid by people of a certain age. They also examine the effect of the withdrawal of the Help-to-Buy scheme

The work and brainchild of a Labour councillor who did incredible work in Social Housing starts, but seems to have an answer that needs MUCH more airtime than it has received thus far. Hence the Supplement!

My reflections on the debate I had this week with Samuel Leeds, property training business owner. This premieres after the Supplement goes to print and air, so there are no spoilers, don’t worry - you’ll have to watch it for that!

What you know at the end is - as ever-present, we will be Keeping Calm and Carrying On throughout 2025 - We will get there, regardless of the best or worst efforts of the current Government!

Enjoy
