The majority decision of the British electorate on 23 June 2016 to leave the European Union heralds a new dawn in the property market.

The uncertainty created by ‘Brexit’ has created new pricing opportunities for buyers who may otherwise have been unable to afford their first property purchase and encouraged overseas buyers, attracted by the cheaper pound, to purchase an array of properties at the higher end of the market.

Moreover, those clients who are selling their main residence and buying a new one, are now exercising greater flexibility in their pricing strategy. By accepting in some cases a lower price on their sale and successfully negotiating a larger discount on their related purchase.

The British Government as well as the Bank of England have also issued important and decisive policy announcements to embolden the country’s economy in today’s new era. Macro-economic policy changes include the Chancellor’s recent statement that he intends to lower the rate of Corporation Tax to under 15%. Mark Carney, the Governor of the Bank of England, has also stated that the Bank will step up its monetary measures to increase overall levels of confidence in the nation’s economy. Parts of the British press also believe that Mr Carney has already signalled his intention to lower in the near future, perhaps by this August, the benchmark rate of interest from 0.5% to 0.25%.
