  • An abandoned, crumbling and riuned house with its accompanying land, has the Hungarian word Elado - meaning For Sale - on a cracked exterior wall in a village of (population 178) on 26th June 2016, in Bakonygyirot, Gyor-Moson-Sopron, Hungary. Its doorway is warped and leaning, the brickwork is crumbling and in a general poor condition. As the old pass away, so properties in the rural backwaters of Hungary fail to regenerate a younger population and old, communist-era buildings are falling into disrepair.

  • A medieval house is on sale by the Savills estate agent, on 9th July 2020, in wool town Lavenham, Suffolk, England. By the late 15th century, the town was among the richest in the British Isles, paying more in taxation than considerably larger towns such as York and Lincoln. Several merchant families emerged, the most successful of which was the Spring family. Lavenham became a prosperous town based on cloth making. The wool trade was already present by the 13th century, steadily expanding as demand grew. By the 1470s Suffolk produced more cloth than any other county.

  • Possessions and rubbish collects outside a repossessed Victorian terraced house in south London. In the foreground we see a For Sale sign strapped on the brick wall by local estate agents Burnet Ware & Graves in Herne Hill, Lambeth SE24. The front bay window has been sealed up with plyboard to stop squatters gaining entrance and the domestic remnants of evicted owners who have perhaps defaulted on their mortgage is thrown on the path - a scene of domestic poverty. As a result of the 1987 a stock market collapse, the UK economy experienced a downturn resulting in public services suffering a reduction, including the loss of owners' homes. The recession of the early 1990s describes the period of economic downturn affecting much of the world in the late 1980s and early 1990s.

  • A young family walk gloomily past property Sold signs in a street at Grays, Essex England. Passing the prominent signs that bear the name of Quirk Deakin, a local estate agent in the industrial towns of south Essex and the Thames Gateway, is the location for dramatic increases of new housing developments. Both the parents and their daughter look depressed in this time of economic recession, when families are having their homes repossessed after defaulting on mortgage repayments. It is a bright summer day in Grays, east of the capital, just outside of the M25 orbital motorway and on the Thames river.

  • A derelict building lies vacant after many years but is now for sale by a local estate agent, on 17th July, at Aveira, Portugal. Across the country, and even at important tourist landmarks, both fine and modest buildings sit vacant and often collapsing. Sometimes it is because a previous generation have passed away to leave properties in the hands of arguing families. Beautiful buildings are therefore left to collapse in town centre.

  • From the side of a road in south London, we see a group of naked female mannequins, standing and sitting with furniture on the forecourt of an office supplies business. A clearance sign stands partly-obscured but one's attention is to the physiques of each model that tends to signify whichever the fashion industry has decreed is the 'look' of the decade - whether buxom or skinny - and shop windows are therefore occupied with the clothing shapes of the day. Some women stand in that classic fashion pose, with arms at the side and one leg in front of the other, or sitting with one leg elegantly crossed: All designed to make the clothes they wear look attractive.
