I'm seeing an increasing number of properties locally which have been
for sale for some time and have now gone to multiple agency.

One house near me is for sale with one company and to let with another.
At one point there were for sale signs from three different estate
agents on the property. Looking desperate to sell in a buyer's market is
not a good strategy. The market in Winchester seems to be stalled and
there are more properties to let than people to fill them.
Unfortunately, Winchester is a mainline station (circa 1 hour to London
on a fast train), so all these people from London have driven the prices
to ridiculous heights.
