Inflation easing has been one of the reasons mortgage rates have dropped in recent weeks but the Consumer Price Index (CPI) rate for the 12 months to December 2023 to four percent, the Office for National Statistics (ONS) confirmed.

Jonathan Veers, owner and operational director at The Buy to Let, warned that interest rates could fluctuate throughout the year, which prospective homebuyers must factor in.

He explained: “A fall in inflation has been one reason why some mortgage rates have dropped to 3.9 per cent, but inflation may increase once again in the coming months, leading to slightly higher mortgage rates compared to now.

“Nevertheless, it is expected that mortgage rates will continue to fall in the second half of this year as the Bank of England is predicted to reduce its base rate.”
