David Robinson, a Rics member covering Cornwall West Devon and Torridge said: 'Much better level of 指示／教授／教育s and enquiries with better 天候, but a real 不足 of proceedable 買い手s. An actual 利益／興味 率 削減（する） would help.

Andrew Oulsnam, a Rics member based in Birmingham Said: 'After a strong March for both 指示／教授／教育s and sales, the first two weeks of April were very slow 選ぶing up only in the last two weeks. May is looking very 約束ing for 指示／教授／教育s but sales are still difficult to arrange.'

James Wilson, a Rics member based in Shaftesbury 追加するd: 'New 指示／教授／教育s are 増加するing but 買い手s remain 用心深い.'

House prices remain in the balance, but depend on where in the country someone is based.
