Property Market in the UK v's Heights of 2007
Whatever is happening statistically month on month and year on year, it's important to be aware we are still a long way away from a housing market recovery versus the heights of 2007, apart from some areas in London. Prices remain at least 10% down versus pre credit crunch levels. More importantly the number of people moving is not increasing at all. In fact we are selling up to 60% less homes than pre credit crunch.
