It was a massive week for property sales in the Isle of Man last week.
Three office buildings changed hands for a total of ?35 million.
Pokerstars bought Skandia House on Onchan Head - also known as the Douglas Bay Complex - where they've been based since starting up on the Island.
A local company which is part of the Finch Road-based Knox Group also purchased the HSBC Headquarters on Victoria Street and the Standard Bank Headquarters on the corner of Circular Road in a separate deal.
All of the deals were handled by Black Grace Cowley.
Commercial Director Mark Grace says all three properties had been under negotiation for a number of months but it was quite a week to get the sales over the line within a few days of each other.
He believes the purchase of Skandia House by Pokerstars is the largest sale ever of a single office building in the Isle of Man . . . . and describes it as a welcome boost for the Island's property market.
