So if more QE is released, will we expect to see more incentives for mortgages etc. will house prices rebound for a short time, what do you guys think?

Pointless, same as last time.
No net new assets will be in the private sector. Its a zero sum operation.
Yields are at all time lows anyway.
Only benefit is if BoE buys st assets at way over market value with the cash.

Why would house price rebound be a good thing?

no one said it was, or is that just a general question?

An explicit aim of QE is to generate asset price inflation.

In practice, likely to prevent property value declines rather than stoke the fire.

Good news for Gilts and equities (in the short term).
