The Right Move? The leading property podcast.

Older homeowners are doing it, but are they doing it as well as they could? Downsizing - it can be an emotional and sensitive time and if you're going to have a property journalist run the rule over this story, you have to get the best - Marc Shoffman. Rent rises are cooling, according to Zoopla in a BBC report and so Simmo offers a wise summary and what it means for landlords and the housing market in general. Charlie Lamdin is on the verge of launching the BestAgent Public House Price Index - Charlie explains how it works and why it's an important move for the sector and don't forget 4th Sep is BestAgent Day. Selling Somerset does its thing once again and this time, Simmo gets all serious. Throw in Alan working some ladder based magic with his self build update and you have the leading property podcast.

The Right Move? The leading property podcast.

Owner and chef at The White Hart in Grafton Regis ( Northants ), Alan Bonar-Drake set his sights on building his own home and now, after long and drawn out planning tussles, work has started. We're covering the build at every step and as the builders worked on the footings, we had a chat in their pub garden ( nice work if you can get it! ) Stay with us for all the updates on self build - they're really useful, especially if you've got the desire to build your own place. Also The media and the property market; do they like a party pooper story a bit TOO much? Simmo picks over how the housing market is depicted in the press and property journalist, the excellent Marc Shoffman gives us his take. Charlie Says isn't short of an opinion or two when it comes to the media and housing, so we've let him rip! Ah yes and there's one more thing to listen out for - what Zoopla is saying about sales trends. ( I say one more thing, but who can forget the chippy and the floor for all the wrong reasons! )

The Right Move? The leading property podcast.
Your home's energy efficiency = how much more ££ when selling? Plus new friendships when you move.
