Increased Affordability

Lower Mortgage Rates: When interest rates drop, mortgage rates usually follow. This makes borrowing cheaper for homebuyers, reducing the monthly payments on new mortgages. As a result, purchasing a home becomes more affordable for a larger pool of buyers, potentially increasing the demand for housing.

Higher Demand

Increased Buying Power: Lower interest rates increase the buying power of potential homebuyers, allowing them to afford more expensive homes for the same monthly payment. This can lead to a surge in demand, especially in markets where housing supply is limited.

Investment Attractiveness: For investors, lower interest rates make real estate investments more attractive compared to other assets like bonds. This can lead to increased investment in the housing market, further boosting demand.

Amber was very attentive and always kept us updated. She was always trying to prevent any issues from arising, especially when the first buyer experienced problems. Richard 11/05/2026

My agent was Elizabeth Cooke. She was very helpful and always kept me up to date with the vendors’ affairs. Every part of the process was explained clearly and concisely. I am very happy with the support I have received from Richard Kendall. Kyle 08/05/2026

From the initial valuations right through to completion, everything was handled professionally and efficiently. Amanda was very friendly and helpful. Thank you so much for helping us during this stressful process. Jane 07/05/2026

We took the decision to move estate agents and use Richard Kendall after our house listing had no viewings. We did not regret the decision. Richard Kendall were professional from start to finish and our account manager, Liz, was fantastic. She was always at the other end of the phone with advice when we needed it and kept us informed throughout with any updates. She also kept things moving along with all parties involved, including the solicitors, so we did not have to. Tom 05/05/2026

Joanne and Donna were fantastic. They ensured my house sale earlier this year went incredibly smoothly. I would happily recommend them. Paul 04/05/2026
