House market bounce?

[WTFH]

Houses with very large gardens

away from crowded town centres,
houses near national (trust) parksor the coast, farms, will go up massively in value.

Sister in-law is looking at buying in the south west - have convinced them to wait at least until B-day January 1st 2021.

There'll be a lot of distressed sellers in the new-year. Lovely time to go shopping.

Flats in busy city centres, houses with no or tiny gardens in large towns....big downward price pressure.

If she can afford something over £750k, 6 beds, 1/2 acre, edge of village with eatery pub, 3300 sq/ft of living space, feel free to pass on my PM details

Outskirts of a major city but close enough to cycle in. Detached house, large garden and excellent local schools here. Local area soon to become a low traffic neighbourhood.

Could be relevant (at a tangent) to this discussion:

Next door works for a manufacturer of cars and motorcycles. typically, they have c. 4-5K bikes in UK stock this time of year (warehouse, not dealers).

Post lockdown they are at c. 2k units. They expect it to reach near 0 shortly.

They think the cause is fourfold:

1. Pent up demand (makes sense)
2. People not wanting to commute on public transport / WFH by default / moving to the countryside.
3. Rise in delivery services (Uber eats etc)
4. Factory shut downs offshore - 3 months in their case (ie supply issues to stock levels)


Will it last ? who knows? They're making bank currently!
