As the name londonlandlady may suggest, this is not some disinterested observer

Are you a "disinterested observer," Carol? If not, could you please suggest to "would be buyers" that they should view your posts with caution?

Thanks.

Everyone comes from a different angle - that's what makes it all interesting!!

Yep they certainly do!

I don't own a property, have no wish to own one either (yes I am a rare breed) and I am in safe, long term renting via a housing association yet still watch the property market avidly.

Don't ask me why though as I don't have a clue!:rotfl:

"Don't listen to them, listen to me"

Is that what you're saying?

If someone can't make their own informed decisions then they were doomed from the start surely

As someone who just pops in here occassionally and is happily oblivious to the politics that has moved itself to this sub board, can I suggest you don't get quite so hung up about it? It's tiring when people can't be treated with enough intelligence to make up their own minds. Fair enough if they haven't actually got that intelligence but honestly, they'd give up reading this board within two minutes, it's that complicated.

The way people argue with one particular troll is just bizarre. I see thread titles and they just make me giggle

I've only glanced at one of footinmouthman's threads.

Who has any time left for trolls wanting you to pay top money, when there is so much important real news and data impacting on house prices and the economy to process everyday!

Has it ever occurred to the original OP that maybe just maybe, this is a temporary blip in house prices and in 12-18 months time everything will be back to normal.

I'm hoping for double digit times your salary mortgages from the new breed of banks that are going to lend money willy nilly in a couple of years. They are just the sort of banks I want to invest in. I'll triple my investment in no time at all.

Must admit, that has never occurred to me!

The trolls are fairly funny, kind of like Baghdad Bob (Iraqi Information Officer) and his wonderful spin!
"They're not even [within] 100 miles [of Baghdad]. They are not in any place. They hold no place in Iraq. This is an illusion ... they are trying to sell to the others an illusion."

but he may have gone one this right
