Movera comment on inflation increase

18 June 2025

Nick Hale, CEO of Movera, commented:

“A steady inflation reading offers breathing space — for policymakers, for lenders, and for movers. After a protracted period of volatility, steady CPI figures help reinforce the sense that we’ve turned a corner, even if only slightly. It’s not yet a green light for rate cuts, but it’s a useful pause.

“With inflation still above target and wage growth holding firm, the Bank of England remains boxed in — cautious not to overstimulate before the disinflation trend is secure. That might frustrate some in the housing market, but for conveyancers and brokers, it creates a working window: a moment of relative consistency where client decisions aren’t being undone by fast-moving economic variables.

“At Movera, we see this as a time to embed resilience — refining case handling processes, accelerating digital adoption, and preparing for what could be a more fluid, higher-volume environment later this year. The market may be in a holding pattern, but that doesn’t mean it’s standing still.”
