Withdrawn applications are counted in "decided" but never in a success rate — a withdrawal is usually a redesign, not a refusal. Categories are matched from the application's own wording, so a description mentioning two kinds of work lands in the first that fits.

The market

Supply
What is the cheap end of the Isle of Man actually like?
Only 62 of 1,394 homes for sale — 4.4% — ask £150,000 or less. The bottom of this market is thinner than most people expect.
What would make this wrong: Cheap homes sell fastest, so at any moment the bottom of the market is under-represented on any listings site, including this one.
