Mortgage market predicted to ease during 2022

Gross mortgage lending will fall to £275bn this year, down from the £304bn reached in 2021 and signal a return to some semblance of normality in the market, according to predictions made by IMLA.

IMLA estimates that the total value of housing transactions reached a record of nearly £370 billion in 2021.
