I just wanted to say a big thank you to you for having such a brilliant website and also for putting my church at the top of your list; thank you.
The very day that you put it on, it was seen by the Scottish Sunday express, who phoned me up for an interview the very next day! As requested, I sent them my photographs and further information.  That Sunday, there was a half page editorial about converted churches in Scotland, there was a brilliant section on my church and the only three pictures they'd printed were of my church as well.  If that wasn't enough, BBC Birmingham phoned me up and are going to use my photos and info in a slot in one of their programmes in about three months, called 'To Buy or Not to Buy'! Thanks again John.
Wendy.

Today a French TV company was filming us for a programme on unusual houses in the UK... they were telling us about other converted churches they found on your site.

For your interest we have been featured on SW television. Local papers and the Daily Telegraph as a result of being on your site and have had over 100 enquiries.

  I thought I would just give you a bit of an update re the station property of mine that you have listed for sale in rural Mid Wales. There has been fair interest off your site though to date no hard offer. However, there has also been interest from a freelance property journalist, BBC researcher for the proverbial ' dream home renovation' prog., and someone in Cape Town who runs a property website that has feature articles on areas of interest!
Many thanks indeed, your website clearly gets a lot of attention.
Debbie Harding

I just wanted to say that your site is one of the best user friendly I have come across, thank you and keep up the good work

I'm really impressed with the number of people contacting me who've seen our property on your website. Thank you for this service! I've taken a look
myself and you've done a great job with the listing.
Jean-Claude Freyche

Hi John,
it looks nice and I had already two interested visitors on e-mail.
Walter

Thank you for your update but, please, would you remove subject property from your website.  We are getting more and more calls from magazines, TV programmes and people who are disappointed to find that house was sold in April.
