Where will property prices grow in 2026?

Rightmove’s data suggests that house price growth will differ across the UK this year. Regions such as Scotland, Wales and northern England are predicted to see stronger growth of around 3 percent, supported by better affordability and balanced supply and demand. Meanwhile areas like London and much of southern England are likely to lag behind with slower growth.

What does this mean for you? If you’re buying or selling outside the higher‑priced southern markets, you may find more movement and opportunity in 2026. Wherever you are, we can help you make sense of local trends and plan your next steps.

Do I need a solicitor or conveyancer, and when should I instruct one?

Yes, you’ll need a solicitor or licensed conveyancer to handle the legal side of buying or selling a property. They’ll deal with contracts, carry out searches, liaise with the other party’s legal team, and ensure the funds are transferred correctly on completion day.

💡 When should you instruct one?

Ideally, as soon as your offer is accepted. Getting your solicitor or conveyancer on board early can help avoid delays and keep your purchase or sale moving smoothly.
Not sure where to start? We work closely with trusted legal professionals and can point you in the right direction. Just ask ME!

When choosing a mortgage, one of the big decisions is whether to go for a repayment or interest-only deal.

🔑 Repayment mortgage: You pay back both the interest and a bit of the loan each month. By the end of the term, your mortgage is fully paid off, simple and secure.

💡 Interest-only mortgage: You only pay the interest each month, so your payments are lower. But at the end of the term, you’ll still owe the full loan amount and need a plan in place to repay it.

The best option depends on your income, goals, and how you plan to repay the loan.

If you would like help figuring out what’s right for you, get in touch with ME Financial to explore your options with clear, expert advice.

Good news for first-time buyers in 2026!

Property experts predict that house price growth across the UK will be around 2 percent next year, and in many areas wage growth is expected to outpace house price increases*. That means affordability could improve in 2026, especially compared to recent years. With more homes expected to come to market and mortgage rates generally lower than in 2025, first-time buyers may have a better chance to find and secure their first property.

If you’ve been waiting for the right moment to step onto the property ladder, 2026 could offer a mix of choice, improved affordability and negotiation opportunities.

There’s something about the first few months of a new year that sparks fresh thinking, and for many, that includes a fresh start in a new home.

Here’s why the new year period is one of the busiest times for home-moving plans:

✨ “New Year, New You” mindset
The start of a new year often brings big goals, and moving home is high on the list for many looking for a lifestyle change.

🛋️ Time spent at home reveals what’s not working
After a cosy Christmas, it’s easy to spot the things you’ve outgrown: not enough space, tricky layouts, or just a longing for a new location.

📈 Online property searches surge
Rightmove and Zoopla report huge spikes in searches and enquiries from Boxing Day onwards, it’s when many people start getting serious about moving.

🚚 Motivated movers
Buyers and sellers who jump into the market in the first few months usually mean business, whether it’s a job move, growing family, or downsizing plans.

💡 Get ahead of the spring rush
Listing or looking early can give you an edge before the spring market gets crowded.

Are you thinking about making a move in 2026? Now’s the time to plan, prepare, and get ahead.

Let ME Financial help make your next move a smart one.

Remortgaging isn’t just something to think about when your deal ends, it can be a smart way to take control of your finances.

Maybe your fixed rate is ending soon, or you're wondering if your monthly payments could be lower. You might have built up equity and want to explore your options, or you're considering consolidating debts or borrowing more for home improvements.

Whatever the reason, reviewing your mortgage before you're moved to your lender’s Standard Variable Rate could save you money in the long run.
