Think I may add more today.... Once the incentives start in jan we should get even better results. With control of so much mortgage distribution they can demand a large portion of the banks survey work.

Pink mortgage network have just announced their best month ever.... Yep even better than 2007 figures. Mortgage lending is up, first time buyers coming back to the market. This company is well placed for the new government incentives coming in the new year. Many people dis agree with government intervention but it is coming so lets profit from it.

Results seem fairly decent, more or less what was expected. Good things in the next half I think.

Big piece in IC (24th)........ "It could help to buy an estate agent"...focuses on sector and says LSL are "trading at a hefty discount to Countrywide,and its shares are a bargain" Ends with Broker view from Jeffries "current valuations suggest opportunity... Rightmove's shares currently trade on 26 times our 2014 estimates compared with multiples of 21 and 15 for Countrywide and LSL. On valuation grounds we would suggest selling the portal and buying LSL instead".

By Ilona Billington LONDON--The U.K.'s housing market showed further signs of increasing health in June, as high street lender Halifax said Thursday that annual house price growth was the strongest for almost three years in June. And, in a six month trading update, house builder Taylor Wimpey said government programs boosted its performance in the first six months of this year, activity and prices both increased. Lloyds Banking Group-owned [LYG] lender Halifax said house prices rose 0.6% on the month in June and were 3.7% higher compared with a year earlier. Both the year-on-year rise and the new level of average U.K. house prices at 167,894 pounds ($256,232) are the strongest since August 2010. In May house prices rose 0.4% on the month and were 2.6% higher on the year. "Improved confidence in both the housing market and the economy, combined with a shortage of properties available for sale, appear to be pushing up house prices," said Halifax housing economist Martin Ellis. "The Funding for Lending Scheme is also likely to be boosting the market by helping to reduce mortgage rates. There are also early indications that the Help to Buy: equity loan scheme may be stimulating demand," Mr. Ellis said. In line with the rising number of reports showing house prices and activity have grown over the past few months, Taylor Wimpey said it expects to report its operating profit rose 13% in the first half of 2013 from the same period in 2012. It said the Funding for Lending Scheme and Help to Buy government initiatives have helped boost purchasing activity and added it had completed the first sale through the Help to Buy plan, which offers first-time buyers a 20% government loan and mortgage guarantee to purchase a newly built home. "We have welcomed signs of significant improvement in the housing market in the first six months of 2013 where we have seen increased consumer confidence, underpinned by both generally improved access to and affordability of mortgage finance and by the recent government measures," said Taylor Wimpey's chief executive Pete Redfern. While government efforts to increase mortgage lending and encourage first-time buyers to purchase a new home are helping to boost house sales, they are also helping to raise prices, which some fear could lead to a fresh housing bubble. The increased demand but still too few number of homes in the U.K. has already led to rising prices, among newly-built and second-hand homes. The Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development and the International Monetary Fund have separately commented on the dangers of the lack of additional incentives on home builders to raise their level of production in order to achieve a balance between supply and demand to help avoid inflating prices. And, Sir Mervyn King, the former governor of the Bank of England has said that the Help to Buy program must have a time limit and not be allowed to operate indefinitely.

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-22984982#?utm_source=twitterfeed&utm_medium=twitter UK mortgage lending up by a fifth, says lenders' UK mortgage lending surged to its highest monthly level since October 2008 in May, with activity even surprising lenders.

Thanks Macminchus. The quieter BBs like this one do also tend to indicate the better quality shares to be honest!

[macminchus] 24/5/2013 09:27

I am a mortgage adviser in the pink network an can tell it is going places. It picked up the halifax chain for a quid and now that the economy has started to turn (slowly I agree, but still moving in the right direction) Lsl have placed themselves in a very good position.

[ryandj2222] 23/5/2013 20:29

I just picked some up today seems like an interesting share and I liked that it went up on such a bad day!

[macminchus] 23/5/2013 19:35

Mortgage market picking up, incentives for buyers in the new year. Figures up each month. Great stock to hold. I've had 30 percent growth in the last few months
