The number of residential property transactions across the UK fell very slightly last month according to new figures from HM Revenue & Customs.
Seasonally adjusted, there were 99,420 residential transactions in April - that’s a 0.3 per cent decline month-on-month. However, annually the number of residential transactions was up 0.8 per cent.
“Transactions are holding up, probably better than expected, and no great change is likely one way or the other with Brexit resolution apparently kicked further into the long grass” according to Jeremy Leaf, a former Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors residential faculty president and owner of his own north London agency.
