In this episode, we’re talking to David Thomas, Chairman of the Society of Mortgage Professionals. The UK mortgage market has undergone a significant structural change in the last decade. Record low mortgage rates have been accompanied by the tightening of affordability rules, and loan-to-value ratios that are far less than those of the pre-credit crunch era. The demise of defined benefit pensions has also led to a growing number pulling cash out of their property to fund retirement. This podcast episode explores how the Society of Mortgage Professionals can effect positive change in the mortgage market.
