Should I Sell During Brexit

There are many mixed messages being sent out by the press regarding the property market, especially in view of the numerous issues surrounding Brexit. Is the market going to fall? Will it rise? Is it a good time or a bad time to move house? Fortunately, here at Jackson Property, things have remained busy with a constant source of new properties hitting the market every day across all our offices. In addition, sales have been great through 2019, and up by 18% since 2018.

This high demand for property, may be the best indicator of the future of the market than anything else. If people feel uncertain about the future, they usually don't risk their money. The real effects of leaving the EU may not even be felt on the UK economy for a few years. Uncertainty regarding the B-word seems to have been replaced with Boredom, and whilst no one has a crystal ball to tell us exactly where Brexit may leave the country, life goes on for the majority of us.

Interest rates have remained incredibly low, despite any nominal rises, indicating the banks do not seem overly concerned about the future at this stage.

So, if you were thinking of moving in the next 18 months, it may be worth bringing that decision forward to take advantage of the strong demand for property that we are currently experiencing in the local area, and also the remaining low interest rates if you'd require a mortgage when purchasing your onward property.
