    Good one. It pays to ignore people who don't know anything about buying and selling houses!

    Yes but you have had the opinion of people here about house prices so you now know that £141k is a good offer but at the time that you turned down the £137k you might not have thought it was enough?

    Thought Crashy would be using housepricecrash maths to explain how it would have actually been cheaper to rent for those four years than to buy.

    Examples like this are why all of the housepricecrashers have been crazy to wait for this so called crash that has been imminent for the last 14 years......
