POOLE saw one of the biggest drop offs in the number of new properties listed last month.
According to the Property Supply Index compiled by online estate agents Housesimple.com, Poole saw a 23.1 per cent fall in the number of new properties listed in October compared with September.
The index analyses the number of new properties listed each month by estate agents across 100 major UK towns and cities.
Across the UK, new listings fell from 72,593 in September to 68,598 in October.
Sam Mitchell, CEO of online estate agents HouseSimple.com, said: “This can hardly be considered a collapse, but stock levels have been bouncing along at the bottom of the barrel for some time now, and no-one seems to know how to boost supply.”
