The market again seems to be picking up and confidence rising. We are seeing an increase in the level of enquiries and viewings for commercial and retail property, price and rent still are an issue but if correctly marketed and at the right values sales and letting as re being concluded.

I AM writing this on the morning following the 2013 Budget and it seems the Chancellor has done very little to help businesses especially no further relief in Business Rates and the payment of rates on empty properties.
