Expertise alone is not enough. Where is the ability? The ‘Bods’ haven’t displayed any over the previous 3-4 years so, what’s changed?

There’s a long, long way to go before anyone can say with any confidence that CWD Is back on its feet. As for the shares looking ‘cheap’, isn’t that a comment that should be made based upon the dividend they yield?

Incompetence on a ‘breathtaking’ scale!! Who in the blazes employed this person and allowed this utter nonsense to start and continue over several years?? You could have bought a monkey and asked it to run the firm and it would have done less damage. Is Ali P a nonexec of Tesco still? If so; get your fund managers to get rid of your positions; before she can do any more damage.

I think you’ve missed the point Chris. This is about a buyer being lead to believe their chance of getting the house is enhanced by using the agents mortgage service. It is that misinformation which is wrong and perpetuating poor standards across the industry.

From: Paul Allen 21 March 2018 12:02 PM

Paul Allen
An investigation by the FSA is long, long overdue. Connell has always used the ‘bait’ of getting the house to use Connells Mortgage Services. Back in the day of Endowment policies and now non regulated products in addition to their ‘extortionate’ conveyance charges where they take margin on everything that is part of the process. It is a scandal that has been unchecked for years and needs appropriate sanctions for contravention.

When will this ‘highway robbery’ end? All agents that subscribe to this portal are being ‘taken for a ride’. Price inceases year on year and nothing to show for it. It is shameless. The only potential light is when there is an alternative that has credibility and the agents that have been abused leave in droves never to return. Let’s hope it’s soon!!

From last year “One of the industry’s leading analysts says Countrywide’s figures for the first half of 2017 are likely to be tough - but he forecasts the group’s performance is likely to improve significantly in the final six months of the year. Countrywide’s long-term share price fall has been well documented; it is now languishing around 165.0, up from its lowest early this year but a far fry from three years ago when it hit 686.5. Its high volume of senior staffing changes - some walk-outs, some redundancies, some orderly departures - have also been heavily publicised. Its latest senior management reshuffle, reported here last month, took effect earlier this week. But now Anthony Codling, a leading analyst at Jefferies, has told investors in a guidance note that ‘headwinds turn into tailwinds’ for Countrywide as the year goes on. He says the group’s trading report on the first half of 2017, released in three weeks’ time, may prove discouraging. Countrywide’s EBITDA - City jargon for its earnings, a crucial measure of corporate performance - will be around £25m to £30m, he predicts, thanks to the General Election hiatus, reduced buy to let purchasing, and the London market’s continuing problems triggered by high stamp duty on many more expensive properties.” Interesting!

Connells pr based upon wishful thinking? Surely not?

From: Paul Allen 09 February 2018 15:42 PM

Interesting. Mr Waimright says “I know given my background of 28 years as managing director of High Street Estate Agents that the performance of Purplebricks is considerably ahead of that achieved by traditional agents and that’s why more and more consumers are choosing to use us. A reference to Countrywide/Bairstow Eves perhaps? Are they truly representative of ALL High St agents? Or; is this a case of ‘lies, damned lies and statistics’? Mr Codlin and his CWD analyses have hardly been accurate so an accurate conclusion is difficult reach.

It’s a total disgrace. To award Mrs Platt the sum they have and then to penalise the downtrodden staff is inexcusable. Mrs P could have waived her severance pay and Mr Chairman could have declined his doubling of pay. If the mantra ‘we’re all in this together’ could be used; it certainly can’t now!

1. Exceptional? Really? Some of those names have been culpable at best and partly responsible at worst. 2. Not a very good judge of ability! Lots ‘talk a good game’ fewer can play. Clear understanding? Really? 3. Possibly the only sensible comment on the page; although Bob is ‘getting on’ a bit, well done! 4. Franchises are very different from corporate agency and Martin & Co are hardly ‘market leaders’ where they trade. They have the benefit of having ‘owner’ drivers in charge and are closest to the independent agent. 5. Well what can be said about Mr Codlin? His analysis of CWD during the Platt debacle has been laughable! 6. CWD’s digital offering was a joke. Il-conceived and poorly executed. Get the traditional model working first then look to ‘evolve’ in a measured and coherent way. 7. Sensible and relevant comment. Know anyone suitable?

From: Paul Allen 26 January 2018 08:43 AM

Empowering is an excellent idea but only where those doing the empowering and being empowered have the ability to use it productively. CWD does not have sufficient numbers of quality managers to perform as required. The operational management is poor in ability and numbers. Recruiting even ‘ok’ quality is going to be tough because, those that sat and nodded while platt turned a ‘premier league’ (mid table granted) company into a poor and uncompetitive ‘netball’, team trying to compete against premier league teams. (Premier league top 6 being independents). These managers (loose term) are the ones that have to step up now. Let’s also remember; Platts revolution (lol) was just plain madness predicated on delusion. ‘Emperor’s new clothes’? and what’s been announced looks the same to me.

From: Paul Allen 25 January 2018 07:53 AM

I beg to differ. Carillon and even BHS were businesses of greater complexity than Agency. Ours is a ‘cottage imdustry’ where all you have to do is persuade your client that you will deliver a better service than your competitor and work hard to meet and exceed their expectations. Then; justify what you want to charge and why then, deliver on your promises. A people business in the purest sense of those words; in my humble opinion, that is. I render this opinion based upon running an agency that produced in excess of a 40% return on income from fees of in excess of £1.4m from a single office.

From: Paul Allen 24 January 2018 14:33 PM

Paul Allen
Ha Ha Ha! £675k for ruining a business and driving its market cap practically subterranean. On a serious note; what about taking ‘even more’ out of a business that you have ruined with your totally inept management. You couldn’t put this in a book; it’s too ficticious!

From: Paul Allen 24 January 2018 12:34 PM

I think there is considerably less turmoil at the prospect of Mrs Platt going than abounds from her daily degradation of the organisation.

The issue is, if people are encouraged to use PB as a result; because, at that point they’ve parted with their money! Whereas a no sale - no fee agent gets ‘kicked into touch’ and has nothing if they appear to have benefitted from ‘spurious’ recommendations.

From: Paul Allen 19 December 2017 10:13 AM

Does anyone really believe what they read on either trust pilot or all agents? Both are in it for the money and neither care about accuracy in my experience.

From: Paul Allen 19 December 2017 10:09 AM

I wonder who created that piece of editorial? I’ll wager it wasn’t AP. If she was concerned about costs for renters then why are CWD’s tenant fees so ‘astronomical’. I’m nitbtsliking about just in London either!

From: Paul Allen 27 November 2017 07:46 AM

Paul Allen
It is no surprise to anyone (other than Mrs Platt it seems) that the rather pathetic ilconceived and poorly executed ‘hybrid’ model isn’t doing anything but costing money in marketing and lowering fees. You have to ask yourself if Mrs P actually believes what comes out of her mouth or she is intentionally misleading?

If the share price is looking as sick as it does now where will it go when the 2nd half of the year results are announced. What says Mr Codlin of Jeffries?

From: Paul Allen 26 September 2017 07:54 AM

Paul Allen
It is the the further dumbing down of the service that a good agent should provide. A few 'sound bites' and the belief that selling a home is akin to 'flogging off' some unwanted item on ebay/any web portal used for getting rid of such things. They have properly lost the plot !!!!!!!

From: Paul Allen 14 September 2017 09:38 AM

Paul Allen
And this is going to make 'all the difference' is it Ali??? So: 'it's retail' isn't it! Then it's 'hybrid' using existing brands! Now it's YouTube/blogging/vlogging! Actually it's just ' blagging' and it's not fooling anyone.

The suggestion that CWD is performing badly because of the general election/Brexit is akin to suggesting that Hull were demoted from the Premier League for the same reasons. The truth is however far simpler. The management are not up to the job, they have no strategy for competing and the 'playing staff' aren't quite up to it either!

From: Paul Allen 25 July 2017 09:29 AM

Paul Allen
What a load of 'codswallop'! Anyone remotely able to see the way CWD is managed will know that it is incapable of a performance that could be considered anything other than dreadful. I suspect Jeffries are attempting to provide some 'positive spin' ahead of the 6 months results and on what is actually happening. It's a catalogue of an ever decreasing performance from an organisation that is run by people who continue to exhibit no understanding of the industry they are involved in. If it didn't adversely affect so many people, it would be laughable!

From: Paul Allen 05 April 2017 08:52 AM

The retail adventure is now replaced by the digital adventure. Fact is that it was never a business that should have been considered retail and nor is a 800 branch one able to be digital. The overheads of CWD make competing with PB on a level playing field, nonsense.

Not a day passes without another lurch toward the precipice. It almost seems as though destruction is the plan; although I can't fathom why? Another senior person departs to pastures new, a 'god' no less it seems according to another commentator. High praise indeed! I wonder why someone with that level of talent hasn't 'gone on his own'?

From: Paul Allen 17 March 2017 08:04 AM

Paul Allen
The plan is flawed as I believe all that will happen is that 'Peter robs Paul'. A vendor will see that the brand in question becomes synonymous with its offering. This is nothing other than attempt by CWD management to deflect from their lack of performance and structural damage being perpetrated. The 'emporers new clothes' are still there and King Canute is in 'denial'.

A significant recruitment of someone who is likely to be the industry's most experienced fd when it comes to acquisition. A coup for Nick Dunning and his team in addition to being a sign of intent. On the other hand, another indictment of the fact that CWD aren't going shopping anytime soon and may well soon have to sell some of the 'family silver'.

A perfectly reasonable evolution and possibly a succesful one as long as you have sufficient quality of people. However, therein lies the problem for CWD.

Good luck to Helen. Adrian is a tough act to follow by all accounts. Let's hope she has the good sense to recognise the industry for what it is as opposed to what is isn't. The 6 years as a non-exec should stand her in good stead.

From: Paul Allen 03 February 2017 08:34 AM

You have a detailed knowledge of what's occurring VS. Your understanding appears similar to my own albeit a different part of the country. Ms Tyrer says 'some' office closures as she clearly doesn't want to tell the truth. The list is not accurate in that regard. No more acquisitions because the bank won't allow it I suspect. Headlines that deflect the reality of the situation. £29m of zoopla money absorbed; millions in revenue bought by virtue of acquisitions and the result is group income where it was. Profit will be significantly lower and remember; this is an employer of 10,000 ish people with no coherent strategy other than to move a whole industry in a direction unsuited to it. Not possible when you only have 1% of the market and no one at the sharp end believes in what they are being forced to do.

My apologies MM. It sounds like you were at the 'conference' (brainwash) that I'm informed took place this week in Milton Keynes? The solution to all problems I'm told! You clearly have a view of the shenanigans that is up to date and 'on point'. There was no intention in my comment other than to voice my view of why the 'knee jerk' iella fiasco was being conducted from existing brands. By all means pilot it using a 'virtual' brand so if it doesn't work there is no residual harm to the existing operation. That does however suggest that you haven't knackered the existing brand before you do the experiment which; I fear is happening.

One last thing; 'strategic review' of commercial arm means definite sale as the banks are feeling very vulnerable about the debt obligation and they need to see it reduced if the current 'clowns' running the job continue in their course of destruction and it has to be broken up and sold. Shippo and Livesey have the £1 ready for the branches and brands they fancy to augment Connells Group I'll wager! LSH was once part of Connells also as I recall!

From: Paul Allen 13 January 2017 12:52 PM

Paul Allen
I' sorry but I do not think it makes sense at all if the perception of the public is that it is the same company doing it cheap. All that happens is that it makes gaining a decent fee even more difficult if and when the opportunity arises. A quality lister may be able to differentiate in his presentation however; I don't think many remain at CWD and those that do unlikely to much longer if they can help it..

From: Paul Allen 13 January 2017 12:42 PM

What a load of 'tosh'. Only last week in a 'conference call' one of their retail directors said that the 'Iella' or whatever super code name they gave it, needed to be re-launched, as it was not going as they would like. Really? No leadership from people who know what they're doing, no enthusiasm from staff, no belief and most of their time looking for a decent employer! Propaganda that Heir Goebbels would be proud of!!!!! Another in the catalogue of laughable PR releases. Catalogue getting to be a volume!

From: Paul Allen 13 January 2017 12:36 PM

Paul Allen
The market isn't going to help them. Too few quality staff to take advantage of any increase in market activity. Barely enough people to keep the remaining branches (shops if you're retail) open, and EVERYONE below MS Tyrer looking to get out of this debacle as soon as they possibly can. Might even be that Mrs P and Ms T are putting their escape plans together from what I have heard from 'retail land'!!!!!!!!!

From: Paul Allen 16 December 2016 07:44 AM

Paul Allen
So the £101.6m of income (2015 number) from the commercial arm goes and won't be there in 2017. 1400 employees similarly. Doubling the size of the business by 2020 was the plan I seem to recall. I'm looking forward to the 'spin' put on this!

From: Paul Allen 15 December 2016 22:34 PM

Curious move. Several scenarios spring to mind. The commercial chaps, where the client moves with the person they deal with, have signalled that unless they are allowed to detach from Countrywide then they'll go anyway and there'll be nothing to sell? Or; Debt servicing and repayment is unsustainable at current and forecast levels hence need cash to reduce debt? Or; Commercial property isn't suitable to being changed into a 'retail' business? What do you think?

From: Paul Allen 15 December 2016 19:47 PM

Quarter 1 0f 2017 will be an interesting time. Unless there is a significant increase in activity those 'marginally' profitable offices will go. Having the wrong staff, demotivated and disaffected staff will not be enough to halt the slide. Any marginal increase in activity will be mopped up by the agents with the 'can do &will' attitude that centralised corporate mentality simply cannot replicate. Redundancies will be next as this is likely to be seen as the less problematic solution to reduce costs. The advertising embargo will persist hobbling the organisation and the few that 'can do the job' that remain. Man the lifeboats! It's that serious; mark my words!!!!!

Oaktree Capital hold 30.1% of the shares in Countrywide. A cursory glance at their website illustrates a huge contradiction in what they profess to be their philosophy and what is happening at Countrywide. If it wasn't so appaling you'd laugh!!!!!!!

Is there some way that those that are experiencing the demise of where they work and had a career can voice their dismay to the institutional investors, Chairman and those that decided on recruiting Ms Platt? It seems that the destruction of this company that employs around 10,000 people is occurring under a veil of subterfuge and those that have invested in it, may be unaware. The fall in fortunes is not solely because of the market. We who work in the business daily know that the market is only partly responsible and if you do not have the appropriate enthusiasm then the fall gains pace and you end up in a hopeless mess. It may be that Countrywide is there already. I can see the headlines already; 'retail sector suffers'. Mrs Platt and Ms Tyrer being keen to use that to avoid responsibility for their flawed and ruinous actions. Reshuffling a bunch of mediocre (being kind) management, some of whom have not the foggiest what they are doing, will not help the genuine hard working staff they are subjecting to a Xmas nightmare! Disgraceful!!!!

The subterfuge and propaganda continues unabashed whilst a large and mostly successful company is dismantled as the management try to reinvent it as something it isn't. 10,000 employees and falling, share price falling and profile on the high st falling as to be irrelevant.

Although Yourmove aren't particularly prolific where I see them they are at least run by estate agents in the main although the Ceo is to leave imminently. The fact that Jeffries appear to be supportive of them as opposed to Countrywide, when they were instrumental in their float, appears to be a damning indictment of the direction Countrywide are moving in. If Mrs Platt has any hope to rescue the situation, she must enagage with the remaining few who 'do the business' and take with the proverbial 'pinch of salt' any proposals of Ms Tyrer who appears massively out of her depth and the sycophants that are just clinging onto a job until something else comes along. Countrywide and the property industry is not BA, BUPA, Carphone Warehouse and the late lamented HMV. Although there are comparisons of the latter becoming apparent.

If the position is that actually only sixty have closed, a recount is required. It certainly seems that things are being done rather 'on the hoof'. It is a long time since such 'knee jerk' reaction has been apparent. Two restructures in as many years and culling of senior managers (when they have the courage to come clean about it), hot on the heels of those that have jumped already. Fewer people of any experience or ability for that matter, in positions to make any difference to the way the organisation does its business at branch level, and propaganda that would make a banana republic tin pot dictator blush. Over 10,000 employees and their livelihoods being put at risk by what will turn out to be a misguided, ilconceived and executed pursuit of an illusion of someone with what appears to be wholly irrelevant experience. It is, as has beeen said before, The Emporers New Clothes. Don't they look a picture!

I'm not sure that JDW are the only brand that offers a good service within the Countrywide Group. What is undeniable though is that those few that do are insufficient in number to keep it afloat in any meaningful way. A mentor of mine once said 'it's a cottage industry' not BP, not ICI. If you think it is you'll come unstuck! Your analysis is however 100% correct in my view. Lack of agility and an inability to reduce costs rapidly enough in line with volumes, is a huge problem. In addition to having staff that feel they are working for an organisation that knows where it's strengths are and are competitive in their market. That positivity can be the difference between success and failure. Get your CV ready, the job must be coming available soon surely?

An 11% increase is good but less so when a larger % than has been acquired and their 'churn' has reduced it down to the 11% quoted. If it was organic growth, that would be very good in current market conditions. The devil, as they say, is in the detail, and they won't be keen to reveal that I can assure everyone!

Never let the truth get in the way of a good story! Does the revenue reported include the £29m for the zoopla shares sale? Are they comparing apples with apples? How many of the 90614 rented units were acaquired in the last year? How much revenue was acquired as a result? More office closures than has been admitted and an insistence that the business is retail! Got some shares? Get them sold!!!!!!

Is it the market that is creating the problems for Countrywide? Or Is it being led to failure by misguided and ill conceived views of what this 'service industry' is and the shape it should take in the future? Does 'Jeffries' know what it is talking about or is it an apologist for poor management? Whether there is any affection for Countrywide or not there certainly has been is for a significant number of the brands that go to make it up. The regard these are held in however, will diminish no doubt as the quality of people doing the business at grass roots, leave the organisation. The middle management bods come and go. Few have much idea of what the job actually involves anymore, having been away from it for possibly, some considerable time. If the top bods have no idea either, then that's a problem. Hold your shares or sell them???

Having detailed knowledge of what is going on inside leads me to believe that this consultancy is being very, very kind. Once the Q3 numbers appear, sell will be the order of the day I expect. Low morale, lack of direction and leadership of predicated on a breathtaking lack of understanding of the industry is creating a situation the will be difficult to arrest. Not even a big improvement in market conditions (which isn't coming anytime soon) will change the fortunes of what was a company made up of some excellent brands.
