Wow that's a surprise, a really big dealer too.
Perhaps that's why?

Apparently not gone bust but a family decision to sell the land for redevelopment. They have transferred customer warranties to insurance backed warranties.IanH wrote:Wow that's a surprise, a really big dealer too.

I don't think we can blame that entirely on Brexit, Covid or the French, although some on here would more than likely want to.
Same down here, local Garden Machinery guy, a good old Caravanner, shut up shop, sold his land and put up 100+ homes. Local Timber Merchant also has his eyes on early retirement, plans for 250+ homes.
Easy money
Still a shame,

It is a shame Richard but to be honest who can blame them. How many of us could resist the sort of sums involved, not me!
A mate has a field that was left to him years ago, nothing special next to a main road. One nearby went for £10k about 15 years ago, now the house builders are fighting over it, we are talking millions not thousands.

Thanks Paul
Glad they've not gone bust, a dreadful thing to happen to anyone
I know the area well, outskirts of a village en route her to Gt Yarmouth, houses are going up everywhere here and I know from my travels virtually everywhere else as well
MrsH and I always comment when we see yet another development, where do all the people well enough off to buy come from and where do they get properly paid work to finance?
Glad I'm the age I am!

“ Glad I'm the age I am!”
Agreed Ian, although maybe if I could just go back 10 years...
