Housing minister Robert Jenrick said in a statement: “I am announcing new guidelines to allow the housing market to resume. Our clear plan will enable people to move home safely, covering each aspect of the sales and letting process from viewings to removals. Last month the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors said the housing market had been thrown into the deep freeze by the lcokdown. Rightmove, which typically advertises more than 90% of houses for sale on behalf of British estate agents, said new sales were almost impossible.

With Britain past the peak of its virus outbreak, Prime Minister Boris Johnson on Sunday announced the government planned to begin slowly easing the measures that have closed much of the economy for seven weeks.
