The Bank of England and its Governor Andrew Bailey have decided to freeze the base interest rate again this month, keeping it at 5.25%
Rates remain at 5.25% but inflation is heading towards 2% which all-but guarantees a welcome cut soon.
UK inflation has fallen to 3.4% which is the lowest in nearly two years.
Spring has sprung and now is a good time to put your house on the market as the better weather always brings out new buyers. Here are a few tips that will help secure a good buyer.
First impressions count so make the outside look cherished. A power wash can make a huge difference and hiding the wheelie bins always helps.
Try and keep a parking space free so that prospective buyers aren't put off by having to park two streets away.
Make sure every room has an obvious function, whether it's a playroom, study etc.
If your house has an obvious flaw, such as a kitchen that is very small, it might be an idea to find a builder to give you a realistic estimate for knocking through a wall or adding an extension and let any prospective know.
Not everyone likes animals so if you have a viewing, it might be as well to remove any cats, dogs, snakes etc.
Do the basics, fill vases, light fires and pay attention to parking.
Hopefully this will help secure a speedy sale to a really good buyer.
The Bank of England has left the interest rate at 5.25%.
