  • “We were the first ever agents to sell a building through Twitter” – Meet the social media moguls dragging commercial property sales into the 21st century

    April 29, 2016

    While residential estate agents have been dragged into the internet age, their commercial counterparts have – mostly – continued to resist such a move.

  • The number of rental homes in the UK has nosedived – and the situation will only get worse

    April 28, 2016

The report, by the Association of Residential Letting Agents (Arla), found the supply of rental [...]

  • Housebuilding in London has plummeted in the run-up to the mayoral election: Here’s which boroughs are approving the fewest new homes

    April 28, 2016

    It seems the capital's local authorities have got a case of the heebie-jeebies in the run-up to the mayoral election – after a new report showed approvals for new homes have plummeted. The report, by estate agent Stirling Ackroyd, found London boroughs gave the thumbs-up to a mere 4,320 homes in the first quarter of the [...]
