🏡 Starmer Resigns - What does it mean for your Mortgage?
Political headlines are loud today, but mortgage experts are saying one thing loudest of all: don’t let uncertainty derail your plans.
Keir Starmer’s resignation caused a small dip in the pound and a slight rise in Swap rates, but nothing dramatic. The real impact will depend on the new PM’s fiscal plans.
Here’s what matters for you:
🔸 Your monthly payment won’t suddenly change
A change of Prime Minister doesn’t move your mortgage overnight.
🔸 Fixed rates are still on a gentle downward path
As long as the transition stays orderly, recent improvements in fixed‑rate pricing should continue.
🔸 Now is not the time to sit and wait
Experts are clear: political certainty rarely arrives. You can secure a deal up to 6 months early, and switch to a cheaper rate if one appears before completion.
🔸 Planning beats guessing
Whether rates rise or fall next depends on fiscal policy, but you can protect yourself either way by acting early.
If your deal ends this year, or you’re thinking of moving, we’ll help you navigate the noise with clarity and confidence.
