Market Update
Keeping you up to date with our house view on the market, the economy and what’s been happening at CapitalRise.
UK Residential Property Market
Optimistic amongst the uncertainty
The uncertainty in the market (taxation and Brexit) will be resolved in the next two years, and the prime market will adjust accordingly according to Savills who are forecasting price growth in 2019 for Prime Central London.
In June, UK House prices rose by 1.1% after several months of sluggish growth (Knight Frank). There is evidence that demand is picking up in prime central London, with the number of exchanges recorded between January and May this year 17% higher than the same period in 2016 (Knight Frank).
Economic Outlook
The political uncertainty with the Conservatives’ inability to achieve a majority government has come to end with the minority government formed with the DUP, which we believe provides political certainty for the next four years.
