Moving Home
At a time when the underclass are told: Stay Home, the chancellor is stimulating the property market with tax incentives for buyers, Estate Agents are doing roaring trade, best since before the EU ref. So whilst some are afraid to do more than a masked walk around the block, young yuppie are heading for the hills, snapping up homes & gardens like never before. Are they expecting zoom chats on the long/longer term? Do you you think there's one lockdown rule for one and one for another?

Re: Moving Home
It's happening here too. Lots of people putting posts on local message pages asking about houses for sale, schools, rentals etc.I wondered about staying put & not travelling far. Can see why they want to live here, we are one of the lowest places in the country for Covid cases, but feel they shouldn't be allowed to & it means no affordable homes for local people.
We do have a lot of houses being built here, but most are for sale at a price.
If I had a house for sale I'd state local buyers only.

Re: Moving Home
Prices are soaring here on the US as rentals and inventories are drying up outside of cities. Mortgage rates are down, people are seeing the advantages of working online, and the handwriting on the wall related to Covid restrictions on businesses and the massive wave of illegal immigrants in California.We are preparing to sell one of my mom's rental homes and even though it isn't listed, she already has three offers over what we had planned on asking because word got out via the neighbors. It's crazy.
I better get a move on too instead of lazing around here.
