“Prices are now 5-10% below where they were at the peak of the market.”

“When a house came on the market, there were 10 people who wanted it and they started bidding," he says.”

“The agent says that a few days ago he saw the first bidding situation since 2007, although the selling price may have ended up as a one-off.”
