House hunters increase following General Election
According to data collated by NAEA Propertymark, the number of house hunters increased in January this year and the number of sales agreed also went up by a third. NAEA Propertymark is a national body that represents estate agents and their latest report shows how the property market has performed following the General Election*.
What this means for House Hunters
Adam Nanson, Managing Director for Your Mortgage Expert in Salisbury comments:
“There was a lot of uncertainty around the Housing Market in 2019 with some people putting off selling or buying until a firm path forward was decided on Brexit. And, it’s great news that the market seems to be picking up in 2020 with what many people are terming the “Boris Bounce”. This is where people feel reassured by the financial future of the country following Brexit.
“The figures from Propertymark show that the number of house hunters per estate agent branch increased by 22% in January 2020. This very much reflects our experience at Your Mortgage Expert. Many of our Salisbury clients tell us they feel more positively about making big decisions such as buying or selling a property.”
