What is the UK Residential Market Survey?

The UK Residential Market Survey is used by the government, the Bank of England and other key institutions, including the IMF, as an indicator of current and future conditions in UK residential sales and lettings. It is covered extensively in the media and is the leading source of market intelligence, highly regarded both by investors and across the industry.

Headlines:

• New buyer enquiries and agreed sales both hold steady in July

• Respondents increasingly anticipate market activity will gain momentum in the months ahead

• National house price indicator remains negative but near-term expectations strengthen slightly.
