Black & White Bridging comment on Property Transaction data

31 October 2025

Oli Bland, Director of Lending at Black & White Bridging commented:

“While it might feel like the sector is on pause, the summer slump is firmly in the rearview mirror and demand is building. Transactions are up. So is borrowing.

“It’s not beyond the realms of possibility that a further base rate cut is on the horizon.

“While some prospective landlords might be waiting to see what comes from Reeve’s budget, and whether landlords will emerge the scapegoat for the country’s finances, serious players are snapping up quick deals. The market is showing signs of recovery after a slow start to what is usually the busiest period in the property calendar as deals are closed before the Christmas break. Lots of bargains are there to be had and we are here to help secure deals in record time allowing for outsized returns for speedy execution."
