Market Update For Property Businesses


Listen Later

The property market has always been one of the most reactive sectors, and one of Tracy’s businesses is a property business, buying, doing up, renting, and selling. So when the state of the market changes, it affects her income streams, so as part of her new blog series, Tracy will be giving you a market update and a reaction to where we are in the second half of 2022. 

 

KEY TAKEAWAYS 

  • In 2020 the government introduced the stamp duty holiday which meant that it was a lot cheaper for people to buy property. Covid didn’t have as much of an effect on the housing market so when the holiday was introduced, people started buying. This led to there being more demand than supply. 
  • The stamp duty holiday actually did the reverse of what the government wanted. Because demand rose and supply fell, prices went up, and the first time buyers who were supposed to be being helped onto the property ladder were priced out. 
  • Residential transactions have fallen by nearly 8% compared to in May. 
  • Residential transactions for June 2022 are 50% lower than in June 2021, which was the last month of the stamp duty holiday.
  • According to a recent Which report, in a normal year most estate agents have about 50 houses for sale, this year they only have about 20.
