At the risk of sounding like the \u2018doomsday\u2019 experts back in June 2016, here are some things to expect:<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Stalled Investments<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>As investors pause to see what direction the markets take, many investment deals will be put on hold.

During this time, delicate consumer sentiments will almost nullify any boosts from the low interest rates. It is believed that by 2019, when all the dust is settled and the market landscape is clear, the UK property market will pick up growth.<\/p>\n<p><strong><a class=\"wl-entity-page-link\" title=\"House price index\" href=\"https:\/\/www.thehouseshop.com\/property-blog\/house-price-index\/\" data-id=\"http:\/\/data.wordlift.io\/wl0502\/entity\/house_price_index;http:\/\/yago-knowledge.org\/resource\/House_price_index;http:\/\/rdf.freebase.com\/ns\/m.0gn3x3;http:\/\/dbpedia.org\/resource\/House_price_index\" >House prices<\/a> will rise at a slow pace<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>According to the mortgage lender Nationwide, the price of housing in the UK will rise in spite of Brexit, but at a slow pace. Robert Gardner, Nationwide\u2019s chief economist, explains that the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.estateagenttoday.co.uk\/breaking-news\/2016\/12\/happy-new-year-from-estate-agent-today--this-is-whats-in-store---\">property market is generally dependent the greater economy<\/a>, which is uncertain at the moment. It will therefore, experience a trickle-down effect.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Impact of foreign affairs<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The US elections has also had its fair share of influence on the UK economy, with investors concerned about Trump\u2019s remarks on free trade. The 45<sup>th<\/sup> American President who will be inaugurated on 20<sup>th<\/sup> January, has said that <a href=\"http:\/\/www.economist.com\/news\/united-states\/21709921-americas-next-president-wants-pull-out-existing-trade-deals-and-put-future-ones\">America\u2019s stance on trade should be tougher<\/a>.
