Patrick's Property Politics

Happy Christmas in Troubling Times

Wednesday 21st December 2022

By Patrick Bullick

2022 has been the most awful year for many, for a multitude of reasons. War, inflation and, in the UK, political chaos.

 We can only hope for a better 2023.

 Specifically for Central London property, I am optimistic that stabilising interest rates and continued post Corona Chaos demand will sustain prices. Transaction volumes will likely stay low because of the huge taxes surrounding property transactions. Not sure that will change! ‘

 Thanks,

 PB
