“Properties in school catchment areas will always be in demand with buyers, and I think people will want a mixture of country and city living.
“I have noticed a lot of sellers wanting to move out of the city / built up areas, however, city homes are still selling with exceptionally high demand especially from younger or first time buyers.’’
