Notes to answerer

Asker: De titel luidt: U.K. First-Time Buyers Decline to Two-Decade Low Je kunt dan toch niet zeggen: het aantal starters is in het Verenigd Koninkrijk is gedaald tot het laagste niveau in twee decennia. Ik zou eerder zeggen: Verkoop eerste koophuis daalt in Groot Brittannië tot laagste niveau in 2 decennia

Asker: Ah nu begrijp ik het. Vriendelijk bedankt voor je snelle reacties!
