Letter from the Publisher
‘Property is surely a right of mankind as real as liberty’. So said John Adams, the second president of the United States. He was referring to possessions and not just a house and garden, but it is undoubtedly true that there is a strong desire amongst people, particularly in this part of the world, to acquire their own slice of real estate, even if it’s just a flat in a multi-storey development.

There are plenty of hurdles in the way of this natural human desire, particularly in Jersey where a lot of people are crammed into a small area of land. There are the financial difficulties, which some will never be able to overcome, and then there is the need to protect the environment for the benefit of everyone. Then once you have managed to acquire your property, you have got to look after it and ensure that it doesn’t loose value.
All of these various aspects of finding, buying and maintaining property are explored in this edition of 20/20 Magazine. You will find practical advice, analysis of some of the problems facing property owners and the role of property as both a financial
drain and a financial opportunity.
The magazine includes a useful section on tradesmen available to help you look after and enhance your property, as well as features on island businesses that go the extra mile to make themselves different.
A look at community issues, investments and professional services rounds up this bumper edition of 20/20, the magazine with vision.
