Dr Nicola Powell (from Domain Group) looked at the three main elements that will support prices through these uncertain times and clarified they are:

  1. Wage subsidies

  2. The option to pause your mortgage and

  3. Historically low-interest rates

Dr Powell concluded the current situation is a “controlled shutdown”.

"Once that shutdown is over, things should bounce back pretty quickly," she said.

All positive and real facts!
