Dealmaker – Matthew Bowen, Aitchison Raffety
“It is a testament to the popularity of Hertfordshire as a location for all businesses that despite the “Brexit effect”, transaction numbers, rents and sale prices have remained steady, if not increasing for some property types/locations.
“Stock levels are still at historically low levels but we are now starting to see some new commercial developments coming on line.
“Due to our market presence and reputation we are dealing with a number of these new projects and look forward to the remainder of 2019.”
