Market Activity • Market activity remained resilient despite the issues facing the market. Slightly weaker activity compared with the same period last year (see note below on Brexit). • Investment market (selling to local investors) remains subdued due to increased tax burden (the third reduction in tax relief has now been implemented with the passing of the new tax year on April 6 th 2019). • The lower end of the market (excluding studios which continue to struggle to sell) has seen increased activity levels this quarter as FTB’s/investors look for value. • Difficulties in progressing sales to completion with some down valuing continuing to occur in the city together with delays in leasehold legal issues. Supply/demand • Increase in supply of investor stock being delivered across the city (predominately at the lower/cheaper end of the market) is continuing to have an effect on pricing/demand. • Definite and noticeable increase (over the same period last year) in supply of investor stock as properties become vacant (seasonal) and some landlords deciding to sell. • City is continuing to attract wealthier investors/buyers who are looking for “better quality” schemes/apartments that are in short supply/not being delivered at present. Tax/legislation/politics/finance • Continued uncertainty over the economy and more particularly Brexit appears to be convincing the Bank of England/Monetary Policy Committee to retain rates at 0.75% however recent speculation (July 3 rd 2019) hinting at a possible reduction by Dec 19. • Somewhat surprisingly Brexit/new Tory leadership election does not appear to have the pronounced negative affect on the market that some commentators had suggested it would have done. It appears that the type of buyer who is buying in the city centre is doing so irrespective of the likely outcome of Brexit/election. We are not convinced that a general election would also have such a subdued reaction!!
