Interest rates are expected to decrease towards the end of summer, delivering a positive end to the quarter.

Property Funding with Co-Founder Michael Dean
Super-Prime UK
We are privileged to have Michael Dean from Avamore Capital in the office for a highly insightful industry and of course football discussion. We talk about Avamore's origin story, their commitment to ground up development, coining the phrase 'finish & exit' to heavy refurbishment. Why 2024 is a great time to be starting a development and what the future of Avamore looks like. Make sure you check out his podcast The Property Funder.

The super-prime space continues to do well and trades at similar levels as 2021-2022, with 60-70% of transactions being off-market cash deals. However, the mortgage and interest rate figures are just above the Liz Truss crisis, and we are looking at two further rate rises. The following 6-9 months are critical for the lending market.
