    At the moment the estate agents tell me there's 10 buyers for every property that comes on the market in this area.
    Also, we are first time buyers, unlike other Londoners who've been climbing the property ladder according to their continued increase in salary.

    I suspect that is because they have lots of registered buyers, possible ten times more than the number of properties they are selling.

    But also remember: those buyers will be registered with at least another ten estate agents :)
