    A Probate view from the other side...

    Interesting article. There are of course many other sources of BMV property, although the competition is fairly fierce in the current market with everyone fighting for the bargains. I would guess that for many, the probate market would be a good place to start the search.

    When do you expect to see the "green shoots" of life in the UK property market?

    The end of 2012 at this rate. I don't think a lot of people realise how problematic the economy is in. We're talking in the billions and into trillions, rather than millions and tens of millions!

    UK housing market falling faster than last recession, says Bellway - Telegraph

    I think we're being overly optimistic if we think the market has bottomed out. Think beginning of 2010, rather than 2009 if I were you. There are lots of people wanting to offload houses and the market is still declining. It's all speculation, but I reckon, 10% less, followed by a year of no...
