Hunters reports that strong performance continues

Hunters Property PLC, one of the UK’s largest National sales and lettings agency and franchise businesses, yesterday published their latest trading update.

The trading update began: The strong performance that we reported at the time of our interim results in September has continued in the second half of the year, despite the well-publicised uncertainty in the UK housing market in the wake of the government’s changes to stamp duty earlier in the year and the UK’s decision to leave the EU.  The Board expects trading for the full year to be significantly ahead of last year and slightly ahead of the Board’s expectations.

It mentioned that the Board continues to monitor and review the Government’s proposal to ban tenant fees.

The Company expects to announce its full year results on or around the 26 April 2017.
