As far as we currently understand the answer is yes, though we will of course continue to monitor the situation. Our conveyancing department will continue to progress existing matters and if you require a quote for a new move please call 01524 386500.

Robert Jenrick, Secretary of State for Housing, Communities and Local Government made this statement via Twitter:

 “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.

• Renters and homeowners will be able to move

• Removal firms and estate agents can operate

• Construction sites can and should continue

• Tradespeople will be able to enter homes

But all must follow the Covid safety guidance”
