Spring is coming early

Apparently people are off to a flying start to find their property. Estate agents are reporting that they are busier than expected. They were expecting to be busy at Spring time as normal, but they are busy already. Potential buyers want to make the most of the low interest rates before they start to creep up, possibly later this year (can they hold out that long? Or will the low rates stay into 2011 to get the economy more safely out of the sludge?)

Plus, there's the general election looming and with a general election change is in the air. And people generally don't like change so they stay put in their houses.

If you want to move this year then consider doing it now. Have a look at http://www.wheresmyproperty.com to see what is on offer. If you're after a bargain then try http://www.renovatealerts.com - you'll need to do a little (or a lot) of DIY.

Personally I love moving house. It's refreshing, it's a new start and you can make your new house just as you want it to be. Sure it's stressful but it's exciting too!
