BBC - How low will house prices go in 2009?

Stop fighting, children

Back on topic... fair enough Steve, got to give this one to you. But I'l bet you three Martin Smilies :money::money::money: that house prices end up down at least 10% over 2010. This is just a temporary pause. Today's inflation figures show that the BoE cannot continue its desperate printathon forever.

I'm not a child, I'm an adult argueing with another adult, so you cannot slap us on the wrists!:cool:

Stupid innit? Unasseptabel innit!:D

Tell me one whose older and wiser and i'll bite my lip - I promise!!:T

At least 15% falls in 2009. But more probably 20-25%

I too think prices will drop even further next year. Things will start to get tough after Christmas as unemployment jumps considerably - going on the thought most employers hold fire up to and over Christmas.

Seems to me there is no ettiquete nor manners, nor social cohesion on this site.

Is it a free for all or what? Not only do I get offended but I see others do too.

If that is that case can I just say that .... ... ......ers and the.........rds and all the bu..........ers and c......s

Also there are the ........ds and the........ers and the to......ers! and the raci..........sts and the ab..........ers

Then, to the extremes, the mu........ers and phea..........es and etcetc...

Is the lesson of this thread that a number of people thought prices would drop further in 2009 and with hindsight were proved to be wrong? And a number of people thought they would not drop and have been proved to be right?

I wonder if anyone wants to resurrect a year earlier thread and see if the same people said the same things? It would be very interesting (sarcasm) to plot the predictions and actuality on a chart and compare which group of people is the more accurate in their forecasts.

With a bit of luck we might all be here in a year or so, and we can play the game all over again.

I think it's a new year, a new decade and I think we should go round and round again in circles regards house prices!!

It was so much fun last time round, nobody got it right and nobody got it wrong so I reckon we should start all over again:j

The lesson of the latter part of this thread, the bit I have just had the displeasure of trawling through, is that Care in the Community really is a failure. :rolleyes:

You shouldn't have said what you did

Ignorance is not a virtue.
I'm not aware what I've said to have offended you so much.
Your right I tried to reason with you by PM instead of going down a flaming spiral route with you.
