Show Notes
Ed Clarkson, a buying agent from Property Vision, is the special guest this episode. He tells Jono, SJ and Richard about his role covering Cornwall, Devon and West Somerset, and how finding the perfect property for the client is only part of the job. They discuss the relationship between search agents and sales agents, and share a few celebrity encounters too!
