  • dv...Thanks...The market will always be there,good or bad,i will keep you posted.
  • I know in our area(Bridgwater) the number of estate agents has risen by a third from 12 to 16 in the last few years. It's funny to see how few properties they each have on their pages in the local free "newspaper"

    Even a year ago some had 3 pages a week. Many are now struggling to fill up 1 page.

    Oh and a big congratulations to think-homes on their first succesful year in business. And GOOD LUCK for the next, it could be your last!!
    (especially if you don't shift those 9 month old "new" homes you've been struggling with):T
