House for sale with ‘Brexit Discount’

February 28, 2019

It is proposed as the first of its kind – A property for sale with its very own ‘Brexit Discount’. A Simon and Anne Foulkes are selling their home on Littlestone Road home in New Romney with a pre-Brexit discount in hope that it will gain a quick buyer.

Though many will know that Brexit has very little to do with house prices and certainly can not be blamed for the recent years of price hikes, it looks like the fear of a ‘Leave‘ over a ‘Remain‘ following March 29th means uncertainty for house sellers in the face of the current trend of price reductions. Sell quickly with an attractive few £1,000’s off and get in before any significant price falls come in to play might be a very smart fall and especially if prices crash, a fact that some property professionals predict.

With only a few weeks until the promised and promised again March 29th leave date from the EU by the Prime Minister, we are uncertain if we are going to be leaving as per the democratic vote in 2016 or remaining or leaving in name only or in deed just prolonging things further – It is this mess that is causing any negative effective in UK property prices.

Anyway, let us at least praise Brexit as some lucky person(s) can get the said house in New Romney with £10,000 knocked off!
