The last two years of the Covid-19 pandemic has had an extraordinary effect on the Welsh property market according to most property experts and estate agents.
Official figures from the Office of National Statistics (ONS) back this up, with Wales consistently topping the list of UK regions for the highest rate of house price increases.
Soaring house prices in the UK have been attributed to a combination of pent up demand, shrinking supply of stock and, directly due to the pandemic, buyer's urge to move to find more space, move to a location that is special to them or be closer to family.
