Belfast’s housing market has a reputation for fluctuating depending on where you live in the city.
And despite Brexit and a pandemic, some estate agents have seen an increase in the number of overseas buyers since last year.
Simon Brien, of Simon Brien Residential, said "150% increase" in the number of people deciding to make the move here.
"Undoubtedly the lockdown period has had many people reconsidering whether they need additional bedrooms, a larger garden or home office space where many people have adopted to working from home on a full or part time basis.
"Whilst many buyers are people moving within their local area, we have seen a significant rise in buyers making the move back home to be closer to family whilst retaining mainland jobs due to more flexible working arrangements."
