UK property transactions fell 11% last year despite the impact of the pandemic and eight-week market shutdown, provisional government data shows.

After a subdued few years due to Brexit uncertainty and tax changes, an undercurrent of demand is propelling the market forwards and 2021 may also surprise on the upside.”
