Peter and Adrian of Hayward Tod recently met with other regional
members of Mayfair Office at their Regional Conference to discuss
the housing market. This group is one of the most experienced and
respected in the UK with members who regularly act as government,
Bank of England or industry advisors.
Specific topics included mortgage lending; length of property
transaction times, the media and national and international
marketing.
Commenting on the conference, Adrian said, “We are without
doubt one of the most influential groups in the business and our-in
depth talks centred on property market expectations and forecasting
over the next twelve months. We all have many challenges over this
period as our new government tackles the fiscal deficit and acts to
persuade mortgage lenders to release more funds to further
stimulate activity - first time buyers must be in a position to
re-engage with the market.”
“We were able to debate all these issues and to discuss
working even more closely with our colleagues from around the
country and in our own region in particular. The Mayfair Office
group have strong regional groups who work together on a day to day
basis supported by over offices throughout the rest of the UK and
overseas to provide true national and international coverage. As a
group of estate agency firms we are one of the largest and best
equipped to help both buyers and sellers.’
The group’s own marketing team, based in London, were also on
hand to discuss the national and international markets and the
latest technology to help communication with buyers and
sellers.
Peter added, “But the great challenge for the months ahead
must be put into the context of the past eighteen months. All
conference delegates were agreed; the market has come a very, very
long way from the recession dark days of late 2008 and early
2009.”
