I also saw the programme. One of our neighbour's house has recently been put on the market. We wondered why the price was so low, then we discovered McCarthy & Stone were dealing with the sale, because the old couple were moving to one of their flats in Oxfordshire.Its no surprise to me that this practice is happening, as its a licence to print money for the company concerned. Almost as bad as Equity Release schemes which are another bad investment.Buyer beware as they say.Re: C4 Dispatches Undercover retirement McCarthy and Stone

McCarthy and Stone were featured in the Mail On Sunday (28 October 2012) where a couple were "financial prisoners" because they has been unable to sell their one-bedroom McCarthy and Stone retirement flat in Church Stretton Shropshire for five years, despite dropping the asking price to 46% less than they oringinally paid for it 7 years ago.Re: C4 Dispatches Undercover retirement McCarthy and Stone
