As we are in the fifth week of the global markets’ panic over the COVID 19 virus outbreak, there seems to be no let-up. As a result, stocks have slumped across the world, while major currencies have also suffered losses. On Friday March 20th the British Pound was trading at $1.15, very close to the 35-year currency pair low of $1.14. The plans of the UK government to support the economy don’t seem to boost Sterling’s value against the US Dollar yet.
Although significant events such as Brexit seemed to affect property prices in the UK, the price crash that some people were waiting for never materialised.

While there isn’t a set formula for achieving a perfect investment portfolio, the reality is that the UK real estate market has consistently performed despite the uncertainty deriving from Brexit.
