As concerns mount this week around rising house prices, with Bloomberg claiming the UK housing market is among the world’s bubbliest, our latest guest on the podcast to weigh in on this debate is Toscafund’s chief economist, Savvas Savouri. He tackles whether the current UK house price boom looks like a bubble and how the Bank of England is likely to respond.

Anna also chats to Tom Bill, our head of UK residential research, to hear his take on the housing market – including whether the stamp duty holiday was ever needed.

They also look at what will happen next to interest rates, and discuss which UK regions are likely to benefit as the economy moves beyond the pandemic.

Intelligence Talks is a podcast from the Research Team at Knight Frank. Every other Friday we bring you insight and analysis on property market trends and forecasts.
