extent this year, due to both continuing rises in mort­ gage interest rates and to the phasing out of mort­ gage interest tax relief, MIRAS, from April. This move will add


extremely buoyant right now, after a period of mod­ erate growth, around four to eight per cent annually, f rom early 1996 to early 1999. This is despite a string of modest interest rate rises from the Bank of England during the second half of last year, and threats of more to come. But demand for houses is


around £200 a year to the payments on a £30,000 mortgage, equivalent to a rate rise of about a third of one per cent. Ironically, the biggest


impact of the MIRAS change will be on those house buyers at the bottom of the ladder, and in those areas where house prices are lowest and growth most


sluggish. The net result of rising


likely to ease off to some mortgage costs is likely to


be to reduce the upward pressure on prices to some extent, as borrowers feel the squeeze. But the inherent strength of the market reflects the fact that houses are cheaper in real terms than for several decades and increased growth is expect­ ed as regional economics continue to strengthen. Last year saw higher-


than-expectcd economic growth,with few signs of inflationary pressures, encouraging buyers to take the pulnge. However, progress has been limited by a chronic imbalance between demand for prop­ erties and the supply of good quality homes.
