All sounds great but we’re missing the bigger Picture - let’s make the moving process similar. Let’s have a property log book and leave the conveyancer to concentrate on the legal work rather than worry about the boiler and electrics for example. Let’s do away with stamp duty all together and have a stronger primary home capital gains tax Stuart Forsdike PCS Legal

Maybe the online market just does cater for the big boys such as Emoov and House Network and a smaller enterprise with less overheads is the better business model. Stuart Forsdike PCS Legal

Simply the USP of an online agent is being diluted since all agents are in theory online. with the traditional agent fee being reduced and the online fee increased all trade in the same manor where ever they sit be it high ST or in the clouds. Service is still key and a good agent giving good service be it on line or traditional will surely prevail in the same way any good business does. Stuart Forsdike PCS Legal

We recently attended the London home show and upon speaking to many first or second time buyers by far their biggest concern was stamp duty and the amount of tax they would pay. There does seem to be a shortage of knowledge when it comes to this property tax particularly in relation to first time buyers who can’t get their heads around the amounts they have to pay.

Surely not all closures represent the market tightening ? The online agents have equally been struggling. After years of good times it's now a lot tougher market place BUT there is still plenty business out there. Stuart Forsdike PCS Legal

It’s a shame to see anyone shut the door on their business but the issues listed are the same issues that have affected the industry over time. No doubt there was room to recommend property lawyers and understand the process - managing expectations is a must as the process is still so historic. Stuart Forsdike PCS Legal

We need to be careful what we wish for. If PB were to crash it could send the wrong message to the consumer that the market could crash – whether the news be welcomed by the traditional agent of not! Stuart Forsdike PCS Legal

A ban on referral fees would be difficult to enforce - is it needed ? Stuart Forsdike PCS Legal

We have certainly seen a large increase in the number of first time buyers that are now purchasing properties in our area. Our First time buyer, shared ownership and new build departments are the busiest in the practice due to the changes! Stuart Forsdike Partner @ PCS Legal

There is definitely a place for both online and high street agents. For example look at betting shops and online gambling or another example uber and black cabs. Stuart Forsdike Partner @ PCS Legal
