The London Eye shares the Thames skyline with The Houses of Parliament and embodies the successful fusion of old and new which characterizes Great Britain today. England, Scotland and Wales - the very names conjure up images of tradition, stability, maturity and old-fashioned values. The country's current success story is an object lesson in how to apply all those positive characteristics to create a modern country well prepared for the new millennium. Socially it has successfully integrated its diverse ethnic communities, it has migrated its economy from smokestack industries to a modern, innovative, design, technology and service-led infrastructure; politically it has been able to devolve regional government to its three countries whilst retaining the collective influence of a leading economic and political power. Great Britain occupies a unique position as the bridge between America and Europe, continues to attract inward investment as an ideal business operating environment and welcomes countless visitors as a world-class tourist centre.

Real Estate in Great Britian
'An Englishman's home is his castle'. Repeat for Scotsman and Welshman. The tradition of home ownership in Great Britain is both deep and wide. The residential property market there has been flourishing for 5 years after a long period of property recession. Economic conditions and indicators are positive, disposable incomes rise while inflation, unemployment and interest rate levels are at their lowest for a generation. In the year 2000, there were close to 1.5 million house sales, about 85% of which were transacted through estate agents. Property prices are still rising although not at the rapid rates at the turn of the millennium. Confidence in bricks and mortar remains high for both home dwellers and property investors, the latter comprising a new generation of baby-boomers with inherited wealth as well as the steady and continuing influx of overseas buyers.
