It is difficult to be positive in the gloom that seems to be embracing us but for our professional landlords, there is still opportunity and banks still need to lend money.  Whilst the cut in interest rates to 4.5% will not cure all our woes, it is welcome and makes the yield on a buy-to-let more tempting.  With sliding house prices, the amount that needs to go on deposit is also reducing.  I feel that for the prudent, professional landlord, there are good pickings to be had but as ever time will tell.

I am off to Spain this week to speak to our internet marketing gurus.  It will be a mix of business and a little pleasure although we will be leaving home on Tuesday at 5 in the morning and returning by lunch on Wednesday.  I will also be filming my first site video blog so watch this space…..

Last week was frantic as we introduced our paperless office system.  It is having a huge impact but getting people to change their ways takes time.  The team has worked incredibly hard however and I am very proud of their efforts.

If you have any questions about us or our products, please ask on this blog and I will be happy to respond.

Have a good week.
