Property Secrets Newsletter No. 172 | 30/01/09

Where in the UK will future property price growth be? We have a few ideas...

Recession, panic in the streets, boardrooms and markets and now frantic property bargain hunting. It's increasingly clear that those who can keep a calm head and a steady nerve will profit from property by looking for fundamental drivers of economic and property price growth and ignoring the so-called 'bargains' cropping up all over.

Our lead article this week focuses on the UK property market, specifically, as the title says, "UK cities with ATTITUDE!". That is, those best placed for future property price growth. THIS is the information the investor with the calm head and steady nerve will use to benefit in today's climate.

Check it out below.

In the meantime, you will have no doubt read about significant changes to the Visium Group of companies, including Property Secrets.
