Higher gilt yields put pressure on property valuations

After a marked rise in gilt yields and a fall in real estate yields, property looked relatively more expensive in Q1 than in Q4.

Further ahead, while we think property yields will stabilise over the rest of the year, we expect further rises in gilt yields will mean relative valuations deteriorate more this year.
