Is the title of an article in The Times’ Bricks and mortar today. 

It talks about a lack of supply in new-builds as developers have to pick and choose which developments they build and which they bail out of.  With a continuing high demand for property in the UK we have seen a mini boom in some areas in the new-build sector.  Bristol is one area which they highlighted as having avoided the new-build ‘over-supply’ and where they are still selling in great numbers week after week.

Smartnewhomes.com also reported that the price of new homes across the UK has increased by 2.1% over the past 12 months.

I hear so many people talking about the depressed property market – particularly on the new-build front, but this goes to show that most of the doom and gloom is, as usual, utter rubbish.

Nationwide has today unveiled a major simplification of its core mortgage range and launched a broker exclusive prime range via The Mortgage Works.

Along with a simplified and straight-forward product range it is also reducing products rates by up to 96 basis points. The same core mortgage product range will also be available via telephone, its branches and mortgage brokers.

The core mortgage product range available from Nationwide via mortgage brokers will include two, three and five-year fixed rates and two and three-year tracker rate mortgages. The two-year products come with a choice of £896 or £0 product fees and a £500 product fee discount remains available for first-time buyers on three and five-year fixed rates and three-year tracker products.

The super-mutual has also simplified its lending limits and has moved to the following structure across its range:
LTV Max Loan
95% £250,000
90% £500,000
85% £750,000
80% £1,000,000

But Nationwide says it also recognises that many mortgage brokers appreciate choice and to that end Nationwide’s specialist lending brand The Mortgage Works has today launched a brand new range of prime mortgages.

Available exclusively to brokers, TMW’s prime mortgage range includes free valuation on purchases, capped trackers, early repayment charge free trackers, a range of cash back options and a lifetime variable rate product. Other highlights to the range include a two year early redemption charge free tracker from 2.99% up to 75% LTV, and a range of two, three, four, five and seven-year fixed rate mortgages from 2.59%.

Paul Howard, head of corporate accounts at Nationwide,says: “This is a big big range of products that we think brokers will find very useful and a customer will only be able to get them by going to an intermediary.”

The region with the highest annual house price change is London with an increase of 14.8%, the seventh consecutive months of price growth. The monthly change house prices in London is 1.6%, bringing its average property value to £341,487, compared with the average for England and Wales, which stands at £165,596.

Property prices are still rising in the UK according to the latest indices to be published and are predicted to keep doing so.

They will rise by at least 5% during 2010 according to the centre for economics and business research (cebr) as a combination of low mortgage rates and a shortage of new homes being built would push up house prices.

Analysts said they expect lower price growth of 3.4% during 2011 followed by a strong rise of 9% in 2012.

Nationwide said that the 10.5% rise in average annual prices was the biggest since June 2007. Property values grew by 1% in April to an average of £167,802, bringing them to within 10% of their peak in October 2007.

Nationwide attributed the strong rebound in the past year to low levels of stock on the market and relatively high demand, rather than to high levels of sales. It warned, though, that the upward trend was likely to stabilise over the coming months as more sellers put homes on the market.

‘Given the very strong performance of house prices from May 2009 onwards it will take monthly increases in excess of 1% for the annual rate of inflation to be maintained in double digits,’ explained Martin Gahbauer, chief economist at Nationwide.

The level of the monthly rise, based on seasonally adjusted figures, was partly due to April 2009 being one of the weakest months of last year, Nationwide said. The quarterly rate of growth, regarded as a smoother indicator of house price trends, fell further from 1.5% in March to 1.1% last month.

Separate research published at the end of last week from Rightmove showed that asking prices increased 2.6% in April and are now 6% higher than in the same month in 2009.
