Summary
As property gets increasingly out of reach for all but the average oligarch, the experts head out across the country to locate regions that may still be of interest to homeowners.
Our property hotspots story has been a big talking point this week.
This is Money's Rachel Rickard Straus and Simon Lambert join Share Radio's Georgie Frost to discuss this, Corbynomics, the Volksvagen diesel scandal and investing in small business.

Also today, the North South Gap in House Prices hits a new record. So where are the new up and coming hotspots in country. Plus, we get the advice from the property guru. |
