Douglas & Gordon’s February 2010 Market Report
March 11th, 2010 by Ivor DickinsonResidential Sales
For the second month running, the amount of property available for sale is steadily growing. It is still less than this time last year, but only by 7%. The number of new properties coming to the market is also healthy – not as many as in January, but still 40% more than February 2009 and likewise valuations are up 32% for the same period.
There is still a strong desire to invest in London property with sales applicants remaining at the same high level as January and the number of sales agreed higher than in any of the previous 12 months and 38% more than February 2009.
Market Report – January 2010
February 3rd, 2010 by Ivor DickinsonEver since our return to work after the Christmas break, I have been besieged by requests from all corners as to what is going to happen to the market this year.

Considering two weeks of this January were virtually a non event because of the extreme weather conditions, the results are perhaps even more startling than they might first appear.
