Did you know that because the housing market is slowing down they now think there will be a big boom on people improving there own houses, as it is cheaper than moving.
I agree with this as we brought a three bedroom house 8 years ago, really wanted a four bed house but funds wouldn't allow us to buy a four bed house. After living in it for two years and saving some money we added an extra bedroom and a extra dining room.
DIY is also the third most common reason for taking out a bank loan

yes I did know that, I just finished many articles on home mortgages, refinancing and even foreclosure for a writing assignment that I did.
