Daniel Thomas, Managing Director of Fine & Country Cardiff, comments on the region:
“Lifestyle change is still driving demand and the premium property market remains brisk across Wales. As buyers look to escape to the country, we are seeing an increase in popularity of rural properties with land. However, the strange year we all experienced last year combined with the increased demand means there is a real shortage of good quality property available and properties are selling faster than they are coming to market. This is great news for sellers as it has resulted in us achieving an average sale price of 105% of asking price so far this year.”
