Following the vote to leave the UK analysts are predicting that the price of a London office could fall by 20%. This news may not be as bad as it sounds for anyone looking for an affordable office in the city. <\/p>\n

The fall in office prices is based on the assumption that there will be less demand for leasing office space if an economic downturn happens.<\/p>\n

Another reason for the gloomy prediction is that some businesses will relocate abroad if they feel that their needs will be better served on the continent. <\/p>\n
