Property experts will answer the question “how likely is it?” on topics from housing, to Brexit and retail collapses in a unique panel discussion at the London Real Estate Forum tomorrow (14 June) at 10am.
Estates Gazette readers are invited to send their scenarios ahead of the debate. Experts will then separate the probable from the improbable in a 45-minute forum.
Examples of the questions the experts will face include:
- How likely is it the London mayor will reach the target of 50,000 new homes a year?
- How likely is it that Brexit will be good for the property industry?
- How likely is it London will be the foremost digital economy of the world?
EG is inviting readers to e-mail more questions and scenarios for the panellists to rebecca.kent@estatesgazette.com before 10am.
