Market update. Nearly all in the red

Suggests that it is only a question of what time they fall a lot more

UPDATE 1 – Strong mortgage volumes push Paragon's interim profit to record peak +11.82%



Good indication of the current Mortgage market for all banks...

Yes, Build to Rent will understand the 'Levelling-Up' between London and the rest of the country. It will be so easy.

[sentiment riles] 08/6/2021 14:47

Totally agree. Also allows them more career freedoms too. Go where they like, drop of a hat

[gary_barlow] 08/6/2021 14:44

Yes, a chinese company can easily throw a spanner in the works. To see the future you just have to look at student accommodation buildings: modern, clean, bright colours. This is what they'll want in the future too. Who really wants to live in a drab little inter-war semi in nowhere when you could live in an amazing building with communal gardens, and proper communities. Who wants to pay-out to an old fart when you can be renting off a large firm (possibly with Right to Buy thrown in too, if wanted).

[sentiment riles] 08/6/2021 14:38

Property pricing has been through a strange phase. For a while, no selling so prices could not be marked down. Then they start going up again during massive debt and 20% cut to salaries and so on. Seems all artificial really

Must be investors buying a lot, hoping yield sticks regardless

As you say, one chinese company kills that

[sentiment riles] 08/6/2021 14:36

Probably already here. Just not reflected in market yet

[gary_barlow] 08/6/2021 14:34

Yes, I agree. The younger generation will be more concerned with the latest materials, air con, and sound-proofness etc. They'll consume a flat no different to how they'll consume a bag of crisps. A 1930's BtL semi just won't compete. This change could come very fast.

[sentiment riles] 08/6/2021 14:27

That sure is an issue. Of course, much of Europe is like that already. And so the younger generation here, probably not care so much about ownership now

[gary_barlow] 08/6/2021 14:25

What happens when maybe a chinese Build to Rent firm open up here and extinguish young people's desire to own, through offering cheap rent and incentives. What happens to resale values and mortgage books?

[sentiment riles] 08/6/2021 14:22

it is a good summary
It is a totally pointless existence in the chain

[gary_barlow] 08/6/2021 14:20

And where does it make serious money from? It's dead in the water.

[gary_barlow] 08/6/2021 14:19

It's a cannabalistic model. It's two-faced and lacks a mission or identity. It doesn't really properly serve the community (apart from the opening hours) and brings nothing innovative. I can't see the point.

[gary_barlow] 08/6/2021 14:14

It can't be a bank 'for the people' and stick a great big Buy to Let Mortgage sign in the window - epitomising the very thing that is preventing people saving money (as they're being bummed on their rent) and preventing them buying a house of their own. All you're left with is dog biscuits and lollipops. It's a pathetic bank.

[sentiment riles] 08/6/2021 14:08

MTRO in share price terms at least, when shifted to such, basically said, we cant compete as a standard bank. No other route to go

[sentiment riles] 08/6/2021 14:07

Must mean other banks turning away that custom. balancing risk v lala land returns

[gary_barlow] 08/6/2021 14:06

It means they're bumming people on interest rates and fees, who otherwise can't mortgage.

[gary_barlow] 08/6/2021 14:05

Crazi, Paragon are a 'specialist mortgage lender'. What should this tell you?

[sentiment riles] 08/6/2021 13:58

My underground mates in the US , going to war here post 3pm

[sentiment riles] 08/6/2021 13:50

NWG 208 probably an even more tempting short, tbf

[sentiment riles] 08/6/2021 13:45

MTRO 109. It will do
