January 2012 - Green Shoots?

Somewhat surprisingly given the supposed economic environment we have noticed both a significant level of increased instructions in our Jersey Estate Agents business as well as a doubling of viewings of properties compared with the same month last year. Anecdotal evidence from people viewing properties with us and through other agents is that other agents are seeing an increased level of interest. Hopefully these green shoots of interest are a sign of better times to come. We have to remember that the dark side of October where business ground to a halt and enquiries dried up is now being reflected in the statistics for the final quarter of 2012.

Let us hope that both nationally and locally politicians wake up to the needs of business.

Remaining cautious is probably the best way to be but perhaps with a little cautious optimism

The articles in 20/20 magazine by Peter and myself appear to have been well received. We have had a number of new sales properties on our website this week and these can be seen on the ND Estates website
