EP19: What is going on in the Housing market?

One of the great mysteries to many people right now, is how resilient the housing market has been, despite the fact the global economy has come to an abrupt STOP. House prices and house sales continue to remain buoyant in Northern Ireland, which ties in with the trend across Western Europe and the US. In this episode I get to check back in with the Chief Economist at the Propertypal portal, Mr Jordan Buchannon, whose team have been tracking all of these developments in the housing market, over the last few months.  This is Jordan's third appearance on the show, and its another very informative conversation where we discuss the level of sales in the market place, pricing, availability of mortgage products and what might be driving the current dynamic. It's a very interesting conversation and I'm pretty sure you will get some value from it. In my thought of the week -  it's back to Stormont and my frustrations with local politicians.   What we DONT'T need in N Ireland, is for the local executive to collapse.  However and unfortunately, the way things are going right now, who would be surprised? I send a message to our local politicians, as its solutions, compromise and a more measured approach required in bucketloads, if we are to keep everyone on board, during what is the toughest of times. As ever I get a health message out on this episode, and it's to remind you to supplement Vitamin D over the winter months.   Do your own research in terms of the daily amount of this super drug, but make sure you are including it in your daily program, along with good food and sound sleep.
