Nottingham Property Market 2020
Posted on July 27, 2020 by Walton & Allen
The property market is booming.
Since the lifting of Coronavirus lockdown restrictions we have seen a huge influx in sales and lets agreed.
Many estate agents across the country are running out of stock as there are more buyers and renters coming to the market than actual properties.
This has also pushed up sales and rental prices. An increase in demand means that prices are rising.
We need more property
The current surge in interest has seen us sell and let property faster than in the last several years. Buyer and renter demand is outstripping stock by a long way.
