The beginning of 2014 marked a very strong start in the property market in England and Wales. Limited supply of new facilities and the strong competition for the available for sale apartments and houses is pushing property prices up and not left to the buyers choice. However, it should not double-digit increases in prices to be sustainable. The last six weeks have shown that upon receipt of the new housing market , buyers have a greater selection and prices are beginning to level out.

The recovery of the property market is active in almost all regions of the UK – it is very important that moved the market in the lower price range. It is the merit, first and foremost, government incentive schemes market, such as “help to buy”.However, it should be noted that there is growing consumer confidence, which is a sign of a strong market.
The property market in England and Wales has one significant feature – the market is highly distorted excessively high property prices in London. The gap between London and some regions of England is enormous, and it continues to increase. This fact allows many sellers benefited from a lack of properties on the market, to put their objects on sale at an unrealistically inflated price. This practice now has a place outside of London that does not benefit the market and only creates a speculative mood, do not reflect the real level of demand.
In the circumstances the government needs to continue to stimulate the lower segment of the market through the provision of preferential mortgage loans. Such measures help the supply on the market of money required for the construction of new housing.
