European investors anticipate further turbulence in the forthcoming Italian, French and German elections, and Americans are nervous.

Lack of supply, together with uncertainty about our future in Europe, and a Trump-led America, will result in zero price change.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cExpats whose first purchase on their return to the UK would traditionally be a London home will bypass the Capital and go straight to the Home Counties or beyond.
