Mortgage rates surged at an unprecedented pace in 2022, with the average 10-year fixed rate doubling between March and December of that year. In response to mounting inflation, the Bank of England implemented a series of rate hikes, pushing borrowing costs steadily higher. By October 2025, the average 10-year fixed mortgage rate stood at **** percent. As financing becomes more expensive, housing demand has cooled, weighing on market sentiment and slowing house price growth. How have the mortgage hikes affected the market? After surging in 2021, the number of residential properties sold fell significantly in 2023, dipping to just above *** million transactions. This contraction in activity also dampened mortgage lending. Between the first quarter of 2023 and the first quarter of 2024, the value of new mortgage loans declined year-on-year for five consecutive quarters. Even as rates eased modestly in 2024 and housing activity picked up slightly, volumes remained well below the highs recorded in 2021. How are higher mortgages impacting homebuyers? For homeowners, the impact is being felt most acutely as fixed-rate deals expire. Mortgage terms in the UK typically range from two to ten years, and many borrowers who locked in historically low rates are now facing significantly higher repayments when refinancing. By the end of 2026, an estimated five million homeowners will see their mortgage deals expire. Roughly two million of these loans are projected to experience a monthly payment increase of up to *** British pounds by 2026, putting additional pressure on household budgets and constraining affordability across the market.

Snapshot img { margin: 10px !important; } About Housing Mortgage Mortgage is a debt instrument that the borrower is obliged to pay back with a fixed set of payments and is secured by the collateral of a specified real estate property. Mortgages enable individuals and businesses to make large real estate purchases without paying the entire value of the purchase in one go. Borrowers repay the loan along with interest over a period of many years until they eventually own the property free and clear. However, if borrowers stop paying the mortgage, the lender can foreclose and may evict the property’s owner and sell it, using the income from the sale to clear the mortgage debt. In a fixed-rate mortgage system, borrowers pay the same interest rate for the life of the loan. Most fixed-rate mortgages have a 15 or 30-year term. There is no influence on borrowers’ payment if market interest rates rise. However, if market interest rates decline significantly, borrowers may be able to secure that lower rate by means of refinancing the mortgage.
