Journal of Property Investment & Finance, 2023, vol. 41, issue 4, 460-467

Abstract: Purpose - The aim of this Real Estate Insight is to comment upon the outlook for real estate investment in the United Kingdom (UK) at the beginning of 2023 in light of global inflation brought about by the pent-up post-pandemic demand push for goods and services and the exacerbation of the Ukraine/Russia conflict. Design/methodology/approach - This Real Estate Insight will comment upon changes in the investor's view of the UK economy and the relative attractiveness of the different property sectors and the shift in thinking post-pandemic. Findings - This paper will consider a number of scenarios and possibilities flowing from the current uncertainties in the property market and the wider economy. Practical implications - As with all property investment, the value and performance of the property assets is interlinked with the use and demand of different property types. Understanding the supply and demand drivers provides investors with a reasoned conjecture of how the property market may perform going forward. Originality/value - This is a review of the UK market in relation to post-COVID-19 changes to supply and demand at both an operational and investment level.
