While the market has recovered well since the financial crisis, often growing by a double-digit percentages year-on-year, rising economic uncertainties will dampen the prospects for future growth over the coming years. During 2017-21, gross advances are expected to record a CAGR of about 5.7%, reaching an estimated £327.0bn by the end of the forecast period.

On the supply side, an increased supply of new homes, stamp duty relief for first-time buyers, and tighter controls on buy-to-let lenders will improve matters for first-time buyers by reducing investor demand for properties. On the demand side, political uncertainty arising from the Brexit negotiations has dampened the economy's prospects. As real wages are shrinking,combined with the rapid growth in consumer credit and ensuing high levels of household debt, this will limit the capacity of consumers to take on significantly higher levels of mortgage debt.

Key findings included in this report -
- The impressive growth in buy-to-let lending as seen over the last few years has come to a sudden halt, and is unlikely to resume in the near future.
- Equity release continues to enjoy much success, with lending showing significant year-on-year growth. Prospects for further growth are healthy, with several years' worth of property price rises leaving borrowers with plenty of capital value to unlock, while the cost of equity release products is falling.
- Lending on shared ownership properties will see huge increases over the forecast period, largely off the back of the government's new Affordable Homes Programme. An estimated 135,000 shared ownership homes will be built under this scheme, thus fueling a boom in associated mortgage lending.
