The value of property sales in HRM is $719,000,000 lower in 2014/15 than 2012/2013
In the last 11 years property sales in HRM have been lower than 2014/15 in only one year and without a large transaction on March 31 2015 this year would have been the lowest since 2003/4.

Civil tech is required to register. Or any other person could go down and ask to register a company with the same name and would be refused until Mr Nikkah had been told to complywith the law or face losing the name.
