It’s the September Market Update  

In this month's market update, The Robs are giving you the inside scoop on the rental market, mortgages and of course, house prices. 

They’ll be revealing where in the UK rental demand is booming and what government agency is predicting a market crash - yes, you read that right, a CRASH of 14%! 

Things tend to be a little quieter this time of year as everyone jets off on holiday but seeing as that’s not an option for many of us this year, it’s no wonder Rob & Rob have got so much to cover. 

Here are all the links you need for your extra reading this month: 

House Prices: 
UK house prices in June rose at fastest rate since 2004 
House prices: Demand changes, not tax waiver, pushed prices up 
Rental market pointer? Regional cities set to see biggest growth 
Five charts that predict the next house price crash 
UK house sales plunge in July after stamp duty holiday ends 

And if you want to take a look at CEBR’s previous prediction of a 13.8% fall this year you can find that here.  

Rents:  
Here They Come: Rent controls to be introduced in part of the UK 
Possession claims double as evictions ban ends but are way off ‘normal’ 

Mortgages: 
Five-year mortgage rates drop below 1% – is now the time to fix for longer? 

Bigger Picture: 
UK loses 83% of department stores since BHS collapsed 

Hub Extra  

If you’ve been listening for a while now, you may remember a book we’ve mentioned before: Bad Blood: Secrets and Lies in a Silicon Valley Startup by John Carreyrou. 

The book gives us the full inside story of the rise and fall of Theranos and its CEO and founder Elizabeth Holmes.  

Well, John’s back with the final chapter as he catches us up on what’s happened since the story broke and takes us on the journey of the trial, which is set to begin later this month, in his new podcast Bad Blood: The Final Chapter.
