Trends
The presence of the Covid pandemic created unique cirmumstances that have driven market conditions for the past 18 months.
Looking forward watch for further effects as:
- increased vaccination levels giving a larger demographic cohort the comfort and confidence to engage in more public events such as listing their property for sale. Will this increase and thus moderate the current supply shortage?
- immigration returns, possibly next year, after essentially a 2 year absence – adding further demand for housing
