The Office for Budget Responsibility has predicted that in 2024 house prices will go down by about 5 per cent, with transactions falling by 7 per cent.

On this week's podcast FTAdviser reporter Tom Dunstan talks to Martin Stewart, director of London Money, and Tony Hall, head of business development at Saffron for Intermediaries, about what effect this might have.

They discuss whether the forecasts should be taken as gospel, how mortgage brokers can "keep the lights on" during a slower year and which parts of the mortgage market might be worst hit.
