Lenders forecast more mortgages than first thought

There was £19.9bn worth of mortgage lending last month, the Council of Mortgage Lenders is estimating.

This is 9% lower than October’s total of £21.9bn, but 23% up on last November’s total of £16.1bn.

The CML is now forecasting lending this year to reach £214bn, up from its earlier estimate of £209bn.
