Prime buyer demand ‘creeps up’ in London

'Despite the short odds on a change in government and continued market activity, the general election has resulted in a degree of caution' in the property market, says Savills.

The latest data suggest last week's General Election had little real effect on home-buying and selling activity across London's prime postcodes.

While still quieter than in previous years, buying and selling activity in the capital's prime postcodes does not seem to have been massively affected by the imminent General Election.
