1• Activity levels mean a supply / demand imbalance will persist into the Autumn

2• Search for more inside and outside space likely to continue throughout 2021

3• …especially as the prolonged experience of lockdown will drive more upsizing

4• And we may see some slight rebalancing between town and country markets

5• A prolonged period of low interest rates underpins capacity for price growth

6• But this may be tempered by the potential for an increased tax environment
