Buying and selling a home can be lengthy, uncertain and stressful. Louise Cooper takes listeners' calls on their experiences and suggestions for making the system better.

Joining Louise in the studio are:

Paula Higgins, CEO and founder of HomeOwners Alliance, the sole body representing home owners and home buyers.

Beth Rudolf From the Conveyancing Association.
