Comment

That is the nature of the property market at present.  Covid-19 and lockdown pushed people to the coast and countryside seeking space.  Coastal and countryside demand is now falling and demand for town and city living is up as people return to the office.

That said, with interest rate rises and costs of living increases in general, property prices are now starting to fall again.
