Episode Synopsis

The COVID pandemic has had an unexpected effect on the UK housing market. There's been a mad rush to escape to rural locations with numerous takers chasing a dwindling number of homes in the countryside.
In this episode, Christine and Tony (co-owners and founders of Saunders 1865 - The VIP Relocation Company) discuss what led to their decision to move from central London (Kensington area) to the base of Bredon Hill in the rural Cotswolds.  Since then, there's been a stampede, with multiple people chasing the same home, leading to a real estate boom that nobody ever expected.
What's going on?  What will this do to the international relocation business?
