Trans-Atlantic Trends: How are UK housing and New York office markets faring?

This week we launch the second series of Intelligence Talks. Having emerged from an unprecedented lockdown, and with many of us starting to commute into offices, we’ve adapted the podcast to bring you a tightly focused weekly Monday edition opening with our latest big piece of research, followed by a topical discussion on what’s happening in global property sectors. We have merged our Monday UK and Friday global editions to cover a greater variety of topics each week.

In our first episode, Douglas Larson, Executive Vice President at our New York-based associate partner Newmark Knight Frank, explains why tech giants are continuing to expand in the city; our UK head of residential research Tom Bill discusses the rationale behind our new UK house price forecasts, and Knight Frank Finance Partner, Hina Bhudia, and consultant to Knight Frank, Patrick Gower, also discuss how lenders in the UK are dealing with the rise in demand for mortgages and payment holidays.
