Mr. Gordon Daly:

Again, those who may be in a position to do it themselves will do it themselves. Others are seeking to put their properties on the market. They probably realise that now is a good a time, because there is a high demand for housing and there is a low supply. People who are interested in this may not have previously considered buying an older house in a town or village, but they are now attracted to that by the incentives that are available from the different grant and funding streams.
