‘The number of houses listed for sale at £2m or more on the UK’s main property websites has more than doubled following the general election, after Labour’s defeat quelled fears of a mansion tax. In the week of 9 April, 246 homes were newly listed for sale at £2m or more on Rightmove, Zoopla, OnTheMarket and Prime Location. Six weeks later, the number had jumped to 639 – an increase of 160%.
