    We're back…..👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

    Kicking off Series 4, Laura and Tom return to the format that started it all: two Property Lawyers, two Heads of Department, two microphones, and absolutely no shortage of opinions 🥴

    After a busy few months, they reunite and catch up on what's been happening across the property industry, discuss the latest trends shaping the home-moving process, and share what's coming up for Bricks & Banter in the months ahead.

    Along the way, Tom reaches his limit on a particular industry topic and delivers a rant that may strike a chord with anyone working in property. Whether you'll agree with him is another matter entirely 😂

    Expect industry insight, honest conversation, a few laughs, and the usual Bricks & Banter mix of professionalism and controlled chaos.

    Listen now and find out what's winding Tom up this time….

    -------

    Tom & Laura catch up on the summer, discuss the latest property industry news, Project 28 and conveyancing delays, and explore what's being done to speed up property transactions.

    Plus, there's plenty of banter with Right Move or Wrong Move, listener questions and Room 101.
