Whilst it certainly feels like Summer has well and truly arrived, Bull and Bear discuss whether it is all sunshine for the UK property markets or whether grey skies and showers lie ahead.
The commercial property market continues to show some signs of improvement. At the All Property level, both capital and rental values increased by 0.3% in May, and total returns were 2.2% over the last three months.

Bull and Bear discuss the Government's plans to help, including the proposals detailed in Wednesday's Spending Review. Whilst the consensus view is that they appear to be on the right lines, house builders really need action not words. And they need it now.
Enjoy your Sunday.
