UK Housing Market gets Boris Bounce

The recently published RICS Residential Market Survey has found that the Conservative’s December election victory is now translating into positive effects. In its report,  17% of RICS members reported rises as opposed to falls in buyer enquiries. In addition to this, 31% of members expected transactions to rise over the next quarter. 61% of members expect price rises in 2020

An even stronger figure in judging the market strength is the number of agreed sales increasing by 9% across the UK and a whopping 22% in London and 23% in the South East.

Whilst December brought optimism and predictions, these figures now support the notion that the Boris Bounce is real.

Peter Barry surveyors handled party wall notice for our loft conversion. Very smooth, straightforward and professional communication. They sorted everything without any problems
Premium price but very good and detailed survey report provided,
I would like to say dealing with this company has been a pleasure, from first contact and all there correspondence.
I had a very positive experience with Peter Barry throughout the party wall process. Ayse and James were extremely helpful, professional, and responsive from start to finish. The service was carried out very quickly and efficiently, with no hassle at any stage. They kept me informed throughout the process and always made me feel reassured that everything was being handled properly. The award was completed smoothly, and the whole experience was straightforward and stress-free. I am very happy with the service I received and would not hesitate to recommend Peter Barry to anyone needing party wall advice or services. Thank you to Ayse, James, and the team for all your help.
