Connells Survey & Valuation Update released yesterday headlines June housing market growth sets foundations for post-Brexit property market.
It states: The pace of property valuations conducted in June 2016 has grown on both an annual basis and since May, according to the latest research from Connells Survey and Valuation.
Covering the month of the EU referendum, the total number of valuations carried out in June rose by 4% compared to June 2015, and follows month-on-month growth of almost a quarter (24%) from May 2016.
John Bagshaw, corporate services director of Connells Survey & Valuation, comments: “These figures for June capture Britain’s property market in the run-up to the EU referendum, but also include a glimpse of the final week of last month.
