house hunting
Moving house is never easy. The only way to make a final decision on a move, is to do some serious foot slogging in the area of your proposed new home. Apart from checking out the area, it gives you the chance to find out who the local estate agents are. Although amost every estate agent these days seems to have a web site; though that doesn't really save you much in the way of effort in terms of foot slogging, if you are unaware of the agent or the address of their web site.
Having said that, the Internet is a great way of initially searching for property details. There are now a number of excellent web sites which combine the listings of thousands of estate agent offices throughout the country. Our pick of the crop are :-
