Three quarters of Britons to assess the impact of Brexitна the real estate market of the United Kingdom is worse than it really is. The study, conducted Good Move, 2,000 Britons were asked to evaluate how a change in housing prices in the UK in major cities since the referendum on leaving the EU, which was in the summer of 2016.About a third of respondents believes that prices in three years, fell, and three quarters – 74% underestimate price increases. In fact, prices were rising all the time in all major cities, though slower than usual.The uncertainty associated with the Brexit, and even more noise, which takes place on this issue in the media, leads to overestimation of the impact of Brexit on the housing market in the eyes of many people. Research shows that many Brits are very poorly informed about the housing prices in your area. In 14 of the 15 investigated cities and their residents believe that housing prices in the city rose less than it really is. The exception is London. In London, in contrast, residents overestimate the price increase, considering that property prices increased by £12000, while in fact, the average price in London has increased over the three years always £4600.18.11.2019 G.
