We know some of you are facing threatening and potentially harmful times at home right now. Police will be there for you if you call us.

If you are in immediate danger and can’t call 111, leave your house and get out of harm’s way. Get to a safe distance and then ask a neighbour over a fence, or a passer-by, to call 111 for you. Your safety comes first.

It’s everybody’s responsibility to speak out and keep each other safe right now. If you think something is not ok with a friend, neighbour, or colleague, it’s okay to call Police on their behalf. The person you’re worried about may not be able to speak up for themselves. You could be saving a life.

Hi neighbours.
How is life in your bubble?
Not going to lie I am enjoying a quieter life and spending a lot of time with my family. Often it is family time that I have to sacrifice with working a lot of after hours and Sundays, so while not ideal circumstances I am grateful to be locked in a house with my wife, 3 kids, 3 cats and 2 dogs.

We have been answering a lot of questions about "what will Real Estate look like after lockdown?"
Some of the more common questions have been answered in the latest update attached.

If you are finding your bubble too big or small then feel free to reach out for a chat.

From our bubble to you buble, we wish you and your family a happy Easter in your own private bubbles.

Steve and Family
