Our Agent Is Running For Charity!

Our sporty Agent Abul is taking part in a 10K run to raise money for Charity Right. Charity Right is an international charity providing regular school meals to some of the poorest school children living in Sudan, Bangladesh, Pakistan, Indonesia and Malaysia. Abul is raising money to help provide regular school meals to malnourished children to ensure they are healthy enough to attend school to complete their education.

Last year the Charity provided over 4 million meals to the most vulnerable children living in refugee camps, orphanages, desolate villages and slums.
We want to help them reach out to more children in some of the poorest regions globally.

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving – they’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they’ll send your money directly to the charity. So it’s the most efficient way to donate – saving time and cutting costs for the charity:

Clapham Common 10K Estate Agents Run 15/6/14 – We Did It!!

Clapham Common 10k Estate Agents Run 15th June 2014. 

Due to a very busy period its taken us a while to update our news page.

So after 10 weeks of training (ok so only one agent actually trained!) and fundraising, City Realtor is happy to announce we exceeded our fundraising target of £450 to support Housing for Women and managed to complete the run in a shocking 1 hour and 5 minutes with absolutely no stops or breaks! Not bad, considering one agent didn’t train at all and one barely did. ?

The first London Estate Agents 10k run was a huge success, it was a great day with many onlookers there to support us. A big thank you to all those who donated generously to this cause and an even bigger thank you to our lovely City Realtor Ambassadors who came to support us on the day!

Housing for Women are now well on track to achieve their target of raising £15,000 for their Re-Place project, providing accommodation and support to women who have been trafficked to the UK for sexual exploitation and domestic servitude. Thank you all for supporting this great cause.

Property News Update

Heres the latest round up of property news:

The average age of the UK house buyer has dropped to 36 in April 2014 according to the Mortgage Advice Bureau. The average age of the London homebuyer is higher at 38 and this reflects the considerably higher price of housing in the Capital.

According to a report from the London Chamber of Commerce and Industry (LCCI) the high cost of living in the Capital is affecting competitiveness amongst City businesses. Soaring house price increases have outstripped wage increases making living in London unaffordable for many. And things are set to get worse as London’s population is expected to grow by the equivalent of the entire population of Birmingham in the next ten years. The report from LCCI concludes that rent costs and house prices are all pushed up because of a lack of supply so it is essential that more developers are attracted into the market.

Home buying continues to grow much faster than home building. A new raft of data from the Council of Mortgage Lenders (CML) showed home prices soaring at a far higher pace than house building. Mortgage lending jumped by 17.4 per cent in the year to March. While home buying is taking off, growth in construction remains far slower. The limited supply of houses is of course pushing up prices in an increasing number of areas including London. Rents have continued to rise at below the pace of inflation. Rents have risen by 12.9 per cent since the start of 2010, below the 14.5 per cent increase in prices over the same period.

Before the crash 170,000 houses were being built each year. In the 12 months to March this year 112,630 houses were built. The Bank of England Governor Mark Carney has said that we need another 120,000 built each year. There is some cause for hope as building started on 133,650 homes in the year to March, up 31 per cent on the year before.
