Times: What gives properties the X-factor?
This year, exceptional houses continued to sell for well over their asking prices. This in the teeth of a recession that, by April, had seen average house prices plummet 17 per cent. So what sort of houses defeated the doom-mongers? What lessons can we learn for 2010? To sell well in a recession, your house needs a special something. 'X' factor features include - A dog-drying room. A flower-arranging room, with potential to double as a present-wrapping room.

@will - when it comes to residential property only 2 people can add the 'X' factor - I sense a new Channel 4 property programme in the making featuring the dynamic Garrington duo

"A dog drying room"? "A flower-arrangement room.. doubling as a present-wrapping room". Oh well those would certainly have the X-factor wouldn't they, we're all missing out for sure! What planet are the Times on?
