Your new estate agent: Asda

April27asda.jpgThe Mirror has a great scoop this morning... Asda supermarkets (or, if you're reading this from America, Walmart) is apparently about to test the estate agency market, placing properties on in-store computers in the North East (of England, not London), and charging an Asda price commission of 1%. The project's being called Homes@Supermarkets - which is about as hideous a name as we could have come up with given an infinite amount of time, an infinite number of typewriters and an infinite number of Asda staff - but the idea's interesting. If it's successful, the plan is to roll it out nationally. Read the story here. But didn't we hear something similar about Tesco this time last year? That one died a silent death.
