HMRC figures show no post-election bounce


The latest transaction figures from HM Revenue & Customs show that 98,540 homes were sold in the UK during May - slightly up on the April figure but below the 101,710 sold in May 2014.

The HMRC data includes properties sold for more than £40,000. About 1.7m homes were sold in 2006, at the market peak, but this fell to 848,000 in 2009, returning to about 1.2m in 2014
.
However in recent months sales have fallen back to below 100,000 a month and there appears to be no significant post-election boom felt yet.
