How will the new lockdown impact the property market in Attleborough and East Harling

In this two-minute read, we look at what the announcement on Saturday by Prime Minister Boris Johnson means to home sellers and buyers in Attleborough and East Harling.

On Saturday we received confirmation England will go into lockdown from Thursday, November 5 until at least December 2.
So, how will this affect people in the process of moving or thinking about selling in the Attleborough and East Harling area?
Well, firstly it's good news from a property moving perspective because the Housing Minister Robert Jenrick confirmed in a tweet on Saturday evening that the market was still very much open for business.
QUESTION:
'Can I still move home?'
ANSWER:
'Yes – the housing market will remain open throughout this period. Everyone should continue to play their part in reducing the spread of the virus by following the current guidance.'
The Minister's tweet linked to an information guide about the new lockdown which you can find at the bottom of this article.
At Millbanks, we continue to work hard for our sellers and buyers in a Covid-19 secure way, while strictly following the regulations laid out by the Government.
Yes we Can
We will still offer virtual tours and carry out video valuations.
We can still conduct safety first viewings using PPE, hand sanitisers and social distancing.

And we will keep everyone we work with updated about any changes that may happen.
