Barclays Wealth has issued figures that it says shows that confidence in the property market had increased. The bank said that it expected that 2010 would be significantly better than 2009.
The figures come a fortnight after Acorn Mortgages released figures to show that the number of property transactions completed in the first three months of 2010 had risen significantly when compared to 2009.
The head of local markets at Barclays Wealth in Jersey, Carol Bisson, said that the economic downturn had had far less impact on the Channel Islands than other jurisdictions around the world.
