New Chancellor, New PM: What Burnham Means for UK Mortgage Rates | Propenomix Live

John Healey's surprise Treasury, Chris Watkin's real-time numbers, and rent controls back on the table. Burnham's in, Starmer's gone, and John Healey is the surprise new chancellor - but for property the real question isn't who runs the country, it's what a new Treasury means for UK mortgage rates and house prices. This week Adam works through the cabinet reshuffle, softening inflation, and a market quietly repricing in real terms. No tribal economics, no hype - just the numbers and what they mean. There's a surprise CPI drop to unpick, a five-year swap creeping the wrong way, Chris Watkin's real-time withdrawal and pricing numbers, rent controls openly back on the exploration list, and a Molly report on London new-build that lands like a warning shot - 589 people bought a new home in the whole of London in three months. Add a land value tax that could reshape the game for a 710-unit portfolio, and there's plenty to settle.
