   The Real Economic Impact of the War in Iran

   In this episode of Mark My Words, Mark Homer provides a contrarian take on the recent escalation of conflict in Iran and the Gulf, cutting through the media noise to analyze its true impact on the UK economy and property market. He discusses the US blockade on Iranian oil, the implications for global energy prices, and why he believes politicians and institutions like the IMF are using the crisis as a convenient excuse for pre-existing domestic economic issues. KEY TAKEAWAYS The Gulf conflict's economic impact is being exaggerated: Mark argues that the media, government officials, and institutions like the IMF are overstating the conflict's effect on the UK economy to excuse domestic issues. UK oil reliance is misunderstood: The UK imports a significant amount of its oil and gas from Norway, making it less directly vulnerable to Middle Eastern supply disruptions than often portrayed. Domestic policies are driving UK inflation: Recent tax increases and public sector pay rises implemented by the government are a bigger factor in stoking inflation than the geopolitical situation in Iran. Interest rates are still trending downward: Despite the geopolitical noise, Mark predicts the base interest rate will continue its medium-to-long-term downward trajectory, likely settling at 3% or lower. The Renters' Rights Act will squeeze property supply: Upcoming housing legislation is expected to reduce the supply of rental properties, putting upward pressure on rents despite a largely stagnant residential property market. BEST MOMENTS "I don't think the impact at the moment with the current set of circumstances is as big as lots of people in the media and the government would like to have you believe." "So a lot of this lunacy has been going on with this government and the previous government, because of course this stuff was baked in years ago." "The IMF, the OBR, they're doom-mongers, and they always underestimate and make it look like things are worse than they actually are." "We are actually importing loads and loads of oil from Norway... emitting more carbon just to, you know, use oil and gas from the same place." "It's just sad for the Iranian people a lot of them that they haven't got a new regime... unfortunately it looks like that whole process is going to be delayed."

Property Investing: What I’d Do Differently Today

Published 7 May 2026 · Transcript excerpt

[…] I would absolutely still focused on forced appreciation, so that would be buying assets cheap, adding value through development or refurbishment, improving layouts, making conversions and operational upgrades so that you can create more upside instead of sort of hoping for it through the market, actually driving that growth and driving that uplift. I think is a lot safer and a much simpler route to wealth building than expecting the market to go up. I think scalable assets such as small blocks, co -living, HMOs where appropriate or something you want to move to a lot quicker. I think if you're buying smaller individual properties, the amount of time that you spend on each one might be that efficient. […]
