The summer of Sport is drawing to a close and we wonder
about the the winter ahead and the prospects for all businesses not just our
own. I read over the weekend that the lack of confidence of buyers has been a
self-propelled prophesy which is something I have believed for a long time.
Buyers need to get on with their lives, mortgages are available at very
reasonable costs and it is no good wondering if the market will fall 1% or rise
2% in the next year. One famous analyst once quoted 'homes are for nesting, not
investing' and that is still the case today, so if you want to buy your first
home or move up or down, just do it, because if everybody just did it then
there would be no problem!
Last week was the Monthly Board Meeting, this week we have
Area Managers Meetings to pass on the decisions and direction from the Board. I
look forward to the Area Meetings as it gives me the chance to catch up with
everybody very quickly. I have a meeting with a company who want to give
Bradleys some alternative conveyancing options on Wednesday and that will be
interesting I am sure.
Finally more flooring was laid over the weekend so I am
having trouble walking today but not too long to go now.
