MORE: From 1st May 2026, the Renters’ Rights Act will introduce significant updates across the private rental sector - and it’s important to understand what this means for you.

Here are some of the key changes:
- ā€˜No fault’ evictions will be removed meaning landlords must provide a valid reason to regain possession
- Tenancies will become more flexible, with fixed-term ASTs moving to periodic agreements
- Rent increases will be limited to once per year, with tenants able to challenge rises
- Large upfront rent payments will be banned

Early preparation will put you in the best position to adapt smoothly. At Hockridge Mortgages, we’re here to help.

A 1% change in interest rate can make a difference… But here’s the important part:

With the right advice, you’re not stuck with whatever rate is out there.

There are different options, lenders and ways to structure your mortgage that can help keep your monthly payments manageable.

And if you’re reviewing your mortgage early, you can often secure a deal now and still switch if rates improve later.

If you’d like to understand your options, we’re here for a reassuring, no pressure chat - just give us a call or send us a DM.

Global conflict doesn’t just affect overseas markets, it can influence mortgage rates here at home.

If inflation rises due to higher energy and fuel costs, the Bank of England may delay interest rate cuts.

For buyers and movers, that could mean mortgage rates staying higher for longer than expected.

If you’re considering a move in 2026, now is the time to understand:

- What you can borrow
- What rates are available
- How changes could affect you

To start planning and to avoid any surprises further down the line, just send us a DM and we can run through your position and what may be available to you.
