The latest survey from The Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors (RICS) reveals that there are plenty of hungry buyers out there circling the market, but very few are actually taking a bite.
But with prices still falling, and rates low it’s surely only a matter of time before all that interest translates into sales. Isn’t it? [...]

Thanks to Jess over at Primelocation’s blog for alerting us to the fact that London agent Marsh & Parsons have started vlogging (video blogging).
Here’s their first from MD Peter Rollings - they’re keen to have feedback, so let them know what you think.
I’ve spoken to Peter many times in the past and he really is [...]

I am a home owner! It is official.
Well, trying not to get too excited as I know these things can fall through at any time but what the hell, got to celebrate and I’m allowed to be excited!
I went to see a place last week (2-bed flat) and although it was not what I thought [...]

Anyone see Grand Designs last night? We’ve written about Earthships – homes made from tyres filled with rammed earth – several times in the past so it was interesting to see the process in action.

We’ve been asking our users what makes a home … which made me think of this: Crosby Stills & Nash’s blissed out hymn to home life with the one you lurv.
Apparently Graham Nash wrote it while living with Joni Mitchell in Laurel Canyon way back in 1970 …  and you don’t get any more loved [...]

And soooo, the end is near, it’s time to faaaace, the final cuuurtain.
Oh god, that reminds me, I need to wash the curtains. Yet another thing to add to the ever-increasing list of Stuff To Be Done before we move out of our house in a week’s time.
