Big changes could be coming to the way we buy and sell property in the UK.

The Government’s new Home Buying and Selling Reform Roadmap aims to make property transactions faster, more transparent and less likely to fall through.

Some of the key proposals include:

• More property information prepared before a home is marketed
• Digital property packs and property logbooks
• More detailed and transparent property listings
• Potential mandatory qualifications for estate and letting agents
• Earlier binding agreements between buyers and sellers
• Greater use of digital ID and streamlined AML checks

For sellers, one of the biggest changes could be the need to become sale-ready much earlier, with important property and legal information prepared before marketing begins.

This could be particularly significant for the Islington property market, where many leasehold apartments require additional documentation relating to service charges, managing agents, building management and the lease itself.

For anyone considering a property valuation in Islington, preparing this information at an earlier stage could help make the eventual sales process smoother and more efficient.

The reforms could also raise professional standards across the industry, with potential new qualification requirements for estate agents and letting agents in Islington and throughout the UK.

Many of these proposals are still subject to consultation and future legislation, but the direction is clear: better preparation, greater transparency and a more streamlined, digital home-moving process.

UK Property Market: Mid-Year Outlook 2026

Just over halfway through the year, the economic outlook has shifted considerably, with inflation, mortgage rates and geopolitical uncertainty continuing to influence the UK housing market.

Inflation expectations for 2026 have risen from 2.2% at the start of the year to around 3.4%, partly reflecting concerns around global supply chains and energy prices.

The Bank of England base rate is currently expected to remain at 3.75% for the rest of the year, while five-year mortgage rates are sitting at around 4.7%. Borrowing costs may remain elevated until some of the wider economic uncertainty begins to ease.

Despite this, earnings growth remains relatively resilient, helping household finances gradually recover.

Mortgage approvals have softened as some buyers delay their plans, but underlying demand remains encouraging, suggesting many are waiting for improved mortgage conditions before returning to the market.

House price growth forecasts have also been revised down, from 2.7% at the beginning of the year to 2.0%, although importantly, expectations remain positive.

For buyers and sellers, the market continues to reward realistic pricing, strong presentation and a well-planned marketing strategy.

Mortgage choice continues to improve, offering some welcome news for buyers and homeowners.

Mortgage availability increased for a third consecutive month in June, with the number of products on the market rising by 45 to 7,177.

Average fixed rates also continued to fall:

• The average two-year fixed rate decreased from 5.14% in April to 4.81% in June
• The average five-year fixed rate fell from 4.98% to 4.65% over the same period

Although the market is continuing to recover following widespread product withdrawals earlier this year, there were still 307 fewer mortgage deals available than at the beginning of March.

Falling rates may improve affordability and confidence for buyers, movers and homeowners considering refinancing. However, renewed geopolitical uncertainty could affect financial markets and slow the pace of further reductions.
