A bit like déjà vu - Coronavirus - Government guidance for the housing market
05 January 2021
Commenting on the latest lockdown guidance for the housing market Melanie Spencer, head of the MCI Club, says “The fact that we are in another lockdown is becoming a bit like déjà vu. However where this one differs from the first lockdown is that the housing market continues to stay open as estate and lettings agents continue to operate, you can still move house and, crucially for many lenders, surveyors can still conduct valuations.
“While appetite to move home is still high, what is more important than ever is that brokers embrace the digital, not only for servicing their existing clients but for finding and onboarding new clients. The positive is that this shift towards digital means that brokers are no longer limited to helping brokers in their immediate location but right around the UK.”
