Event details

Join us for the latest on the trends impacting the English Country House sector. COVID has caused many HNW clients to look for new styles of property in rural areas. This demand has created new dynamics that professional advisors should be aware of including: the latest trends in the sales & valuation data, the response from landowners to shifting government policy and its impact on the rural economy, as well as a discussion of tax considerations.
