The number of three or more bedroom homes available for sale has fallen sharply since the introduction of home information packs, a survey showed yesterday.
The study, by the Royal Institute of Chartered Surveyors, showed a 37% drop in the number of properties put on the market which needed a pack last month compared with the same period a year ago. This trend continued from August, when, the RICS said, the number of people looking to sell four-bedroom homes dropped by 51%
