- #4 To Dec 2017, using Land Registry, 6 month smoothed Nationwide started recording ANNUAL price falls in Q3. Annual as at Q4 is 0.5% Savills repeat sales index shows still in slight positive territory at 1.7%.
- #6 Rental market has sufferAssumptions Base rate, mortgage rate, GDP recovery ed in 2017 fro new supply following SDLT changes in 2016 – renewals have come in all at once, plus more new build stock. Mid-2017 we started to see investors rationalise their portfolios. Consequences are weak capital price growth – the development industry will be more reliant on HTB and PRS/BTR
- #8 Hitting up against mortgage regulation… What does this mean in terms of price growth across the wider London market?

- #19 According to the GLA Intelligence Unit, London will have 100,000 more octogenarians by 2029
