Response
The figures for residential property transactions through the Royal Court are:
The figure for 2015 up to and including 18 September 2015 is 900 (this is the last Royal Court sitting currently included in data at the Statistics Unit).
The above figures do not include:
- commercial properties
- transactions solely related to land
- properties that are transacted by way of a gift
- properties transferred from joint names into sole names
- properties transferred from sole name into joint names
To provide figures up to 30 September 2015, data from the Royal Court sitting on 25 September 2015 would need to be included.
We have checked the Public Registry records at the Judicial Greffe for that day and found 35 transactions which are likely to be classified as residential but have not yet been included in the statistics.
