520 _aAppraisal of the UK housing market in the wake of the US terrorist attacks. Highlights the buoyant housing market in 2001, which confounded expert predictions and suggests that current optimistic economic conditions should allow for further growth under normal circumstances. Discusses the impact of the US slowdown and terrorist attacks, and identifies positive measures taken by the US government to prevent recession. Identifies housing affordability in London and the South East as a significant problem affecting the UK housing market, and concludes that this is likely to slowdown house price inflation during 2002.
