Real Estate TV is to cease broadcasting at 6am on Wednesday, April 1.
The channel launched in October 2004 as a linear service in the Sky electronic programme guide with on demand content carried online and on Virgin Media's digital cable service. A controlling stake in the broadcaster was purchased for an undisclosed sum by Fox International Channels last January.
Programme data indicates that Property Virgins - The Eagle Has Landed will be the final show on Real Estate TV at 5:30am. It is not yet known what will happen to the broadcaster's Sky programme guide slots, 262 and 263.
