James Tucker, CEO of mortgage technology provider Twenty7Tec, comments:

“March 2021 continued the upward trends that we have all experienced over recent months. An extension of the UK stamp duty relief scheme, the promise of a guaranteed 95%+ LTV market and increasing confidence in the market, in vaccines and in life beyond our homes have all combined to sustain growth in our market. Is there any respite on the horizon? It doesn’t look as if things will slow down for a few weeks yet, although the stamp duty relief ending on the £250k-£500k range will dampen demand a little.”
