A sunny Saturday

Weather - Sunny intervals 17C

After the dismal performance of the weather last Bank Holiday, today is relatively beautiful.
Nationwide have reported that house prices have dropped 4.6% in the last year with May seeing a drop of 2.4%...... which is nice!

Still as quiet as ever with four viewings today. However, there are also two valuations being carried out today and I believe a few properties coming on next week. Currently we have 43 properties on the market. David wants to raise that to sixty. Now all we have to do is sell the bloody things! Just had a chap register with us with the longest name I've ever seen. Reckon he's probably Sri Lankan or something. You'd be a winner at scrabble with it, that's all I know.

Town's definitely busier than last Monday (which isn't saying much), but there's nobody coming through the doors. David's gone to lunch and Anna's out on a viewing. She's left forty minutes early because she hasn't seen the house before. Forty minutes? She'll be round it in five! Anyway, that's the way Anna does it. She's making me coffee now so can't be too harsh on her.
I'm off to do a viewing in a few minutes, apparently a second viewing with the woman having put in offers on about another four properties so I'm under orders not to take any offers as she's a little bit flaky. Lost her husband a while ago and very insecure apparently.

Asked David about doing leaflet drops and he's all for it so that'll be a bit of extra during the week, if he remembers. Think I'll email him mid-week to remind him.

Oh well, off to the final viewing of the day and then back home for some RnR. It's a tough job, but someone's got to do it!
It's the end of May. June tomorrow, I wonder what this month will bring.
