   Conversations with Connor: January 2026

   We’re back for the first Conversations with Connor of 2026, rounding up the biggest UK property and economic headlines from January, and what they could mean for buyers, investors, and landlords. Connor breaks down the latest ONS growth and inflation figures, Rightmove’s strongest January rise in asking prices in a decade, and what the data suggests about demand and market momentum. We also explore where opportunities could emerge in 2026 - from regional investment hotspots to why London and the South East are seeing a notable uplift in new listings. For landlords, we cover early signs of renewed confidence, the ongoing rise of SPVs, rental demand in London, plus two major policy updates: EPC reform with a single October 2030 compliance deadline, and significant changes to ground rents and the leasehold system. Tune in for a practical, monthly roundup to help you stay informed as the market moves into 2026.

   Conversations with Connor: December 2025

   As 2025 draws to a close, Connor looks back on a year that challenged sentiment across the property market, but also revealed resilience, opportunity and important shifts beneath the headlines. In this end-of-year episode of Conversations with Connor, we revisit the most significant property, lending and economic developments of 2025, from record house prices and rising rental yields to government policy changes, lender innovation and evolving investor behaviour. Connor reflects on how specialist finance has continued to play a vital role in supporting complex cases, despite wider uncertainty. The episode also explores changing investor strategies, the growing use of limited company structures, the influence of younger generations on the market, and what recent announcements, including the Autumn Budget and Renters’ Rights reforms, could mean heading into 2026. A thoughtful roundup of the year that was, and a measured look ahead to what property professionals, brokers and investors should be preparing for next.

Thankfully, even as we wrapped up a tough year in 2025, these prices were kept afloat by clear buyer demand. Residential property transactions rose by 1 % in November, according to HMRC. While right move recorded is busiest ever, boxing day bounce. Fortunately, with improving affordability and greater economic clarity, this momentum should continue into this year. […]
