The national property headlines in June looked grim. Rightmove reported the biggest asking price fall in fourteen years. 📉

But here's what those headlines didn't tell you.

That figure is a national average - and right now, national averages are hiding a very different story depending on where you are in the country.

👇 Here's what the data actually shows for June 2026:

🔴 London: down 1.2% year-on-year 🔴 South East: down 1.6% year-on-year 🟢 North East: up 3.2% year-on-year 🟢 Newcastle rents: up 10.3% in 12 months

We've put together a full breakdown of the June figures - Rightmove, Zoopla, ONS, and the Bank of England - with the regional detail that tends to get lost in the national noise.

Worth a read if you're keeping an eye on the market. Link in the comments 👇

𝗦𝗮𝗺𝗲 𝗠𝗮𝗿𝗸𝗲𝘁, 𝗙𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗗𝗶𝗳𝗳𝗲𝗿𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝗦𝘁𝗼𝗿𝗶𝗲𝘀 📊

Ever wonder why property headlines seem so contradictory? This week's a perfect example of why we always dig deeper than the surface.

What happened in UK housing during April 2026:

🏛️ Government Official Data: House prices up 1.2% annually

🏠 Nationwide: Prices jumped 3% - "fastest growth in 11 months"

🏠 Halifax: Prices fell 0.1%, growth "halved due to Iran crisis"

📊 Our approach at Chant Properties? We look at actual sold property prices from completed transactions - not asking prices or mortgage applications. We combine this with UK swap rates (currently 4.35% for 5-year deals) and official Land Registry data.

Result? The media ran three completely different stories from the same market data!

📰 "Market bounces back strongly" 📰 "Growth halves due to crisis" 📰 "Prices stabilise amid uncertainty"

What this teaches us:

✅ Different methods = different headlines ✅ We focus on completed sales, not hopes and wishes ✅ Swap rates tell us more about real costs than monthly variations ✅ The fundamentals haven't changed - UK still has a 4.3 million home shortage

Before making any property decision: Look at multiple sources, check what's actually selling (not just listed), and understand the real borrowing costs.

Don't let headline drama drive your investment decisions. The fundamentals matter more than the noise.

What's your experience with conflicting property news? Have you seen the media blow things out of proportion?

𝗠𝗮𝘆 𝗗𝗮𝘆, 𝗠𝗮𝘆 𝗗𝗮𝘆 - 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗥𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗮𝗹 𝗥𝘂𝗹𝗲𝘀 𝗛𝗮𝘃𝗲 𝗟𝗮𝗻𝗱𝗲𝗱! 🏠

From today (1 May 2026), the Renters' Rights Act has completely changed England's rental market. Here's what's new:

🚫 𝗦𝗲𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝟮𝟭 𝗘𝘃𝗶𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀: GONE No more "no-fault" evictions. Need proper grounds now.

📋 𝗙𝗶𝘅𝗲𝗱 𝗧𝗲𝗿𝗺𝘀: FINISHED All tenancies become rolling contracts.

💷 𝗥𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝗜𝗻𝗰𝗿𝗲𝗮𝘀𝗲𝘀: ONCE A YEAR ONLY Plus tenants can challenge rises.

⚠️ 𝗟𝗮𝗻𝗱𝗹𝗼𝗿𝗱𝘀: You have until 31 May to: • Send government info sheets to all tenants • Provide written terms for any verbal agreements

Our take? Most changes are fair, but we're concerned about court delays for problem tenants. We've been using rolling contracts for years anyway!

Non-compliance fines reach £40,000 - make sure you're covered.

Questions about the new rules? Drop us a message - there's no such thing as a daft question when it comes to staying legal!

10 years of Chant Properties. Here's what we've learned.
Back in 2016, we were two brothers from Yorkshire who'd moved to Newcastle with big ambitions and even bigger appetites for hard work.

Fast forward a decade: countless investor relationships and some valuable lessons about what really matters in property investment.

The biggest lesson? Steady beats speedy every time.

The market's taught us that aggressive expansion isn't always smart expansion. Regulations are tougher. Costs are higher. Good properties are harder to find.

So we're doing what we've always done - just smarter:

🏠 Still buying from retiring landlords who want a fair, hassle-free exit

💰 Still working with cash investors who want solid returns without the headaches

📈 Still delivering consistent results - just at a pace that makes sense

The next 10 years won't be about flashy growth or get-rich-quick schemes.

They'll be about doing what we do best: buying the right properties, renovating them properly, and sharing the benefits with people who trust us to get it right.

One carefully chosen investment at a time.

Here's to the next chapter. 🍻

🎉 Happy 10th Anniversary to Chant Properties! 🎂

Ten years ago, two brothers from Yorkshire decided to take a massive leap of faith.

It was December 2014. We'd just invested over £25,000 in a property course in Newcastle - more money than we'd ever spent on anything. But something told us this was our chance.

"We were just doing what we were told to do," Chris remembers. View hundreds of properties. Make offers. Follow the system.

Our approach was simple: listen to our advisors and mentors, ask the right questions, then just get it done. No overthinking. No excuses.

And it worked.

Within months, people from our network started approaching us: "Listen, you guys are obviously committed to this. We'll lend you 10 grand, we'll lend you 20."

That trust meant everything.

Formally establishing Chant Properties in 2016, Chris and Anthony have built something we're genuinely proud of:

✅ Over £3 million worth of property under management ✅ 4-10% returns delivered consistently to our investors ✅ Legally secured investments that actually protect people ✅ Partnerships built on straight-talking honesty

From HGV mechanic earning £11,000 and a student fresh out of uni to property investment specialists - it proves what's possible when you commit fully and maintain proper standards.

The difficult renovations taught us valuable lessons. The early investors trusted us when we were still learning. Those long evenings with Chris and Anthony stripping out properties shaped the quality standards we still maintain today.

We're just straight-talking people who happened to figure out a system that works.

Here's to the next decade of secure returns, honest partnerships, and helping more people achieve their financial goals through property investment.

Thank you for being part of our incredible journey. The best is definitely yet to come! 🏠

Every property investor asks the same question: "Which acquisition method gets the best deals?"

Direct from sellers vs auctions vs estate agents.

After 15 years of buying through every method, here's what actually matters...

The Only Question Worth Asking

Purchase price + refurb + fees vs monthly rental income.

That's it.

We've seen brilliant auction "bargains" become money pits. Direct seller deals that barely broke even. Boring estate agent purchases that delivered excellent returns.

The Three Routes (Reality Check)

🏠 Direct purchases: No bidding wars, but finding motivated sellers takes months. Price isn't automatically discounted.

🔨 Auctions: Quick decisions, genuine motivation. But bidding wars and 10% deposits on the day create pressure.

🏢 Estate agents: Most choice, full viewings. But longer chains and last-minute gazumping.

What Actually Works

The fundamentals never change: Purchase price + refurb costs + fees vs monthly rental income.

If the numbers don't add up, it doesn't matter how you found the property.

Our Simple Rule

If we can't clearly explain how a property makes money in two sentences, we walk away.

Regardless of acquisition method.

The right deal works through any channel. The wrong deal fails through all of them.
