Supply Dries Up In UK Housing Market

Parts of the UK property market are facing a supply shortage, with a quarter fewer properties listed for sale in England and Wales in March 2021 than compared with the same time last year.  This is more of a problem in the market for houses rather than flats, as the number of houses listed for sale was 33% lower over the 12-month period while the number of flats was 7% higher.

Among the house listings, the number was 3% down in London compared to a drop of 42% in south-west England. Read more on the Yahoo Finance website.
