Behave, are getting a little desperate?'Just think for a moment what a prospect that is. A single market without barriers visible or invisible giving you direct and unhindered access to the purchasing power of over 300 million of the worlds wealthiest and most prosperous people' Margaret Thatcher0 -
Was it this “bullish coment” which upset you?
Interesting I said this months ago.
"An average of just 20,000 people a week put their property up for sale during the period, the lowest level recorded by Rightmove since 2002, and well down on the level of around 35,000 a week 12 months ago.
Rightmove said the low level of sellers suggested that people were not currently under pressure to sell their home, with many unwilling to enter the market until the outlook for prices had improved."
The reason why asking prices are not droping as much as the people selling dont need to they just want to walk away with their HPI.
Those people will come off the market soon as the people who need to sell redunacy and repos will kick in on their streets.
Forced sales will be the driving force for sales over the next year.
If people have not sold now and only want to lock in HPI its tuff it is to late.
If people need to move for work etc. its an unfortunate time to sell now.
Most will have to sit tight and ride the storm now.

Circumstances can change on a daily basis, 100's today, will find their partner has cheated, 100's today, will face redundancy, 100's today will lose a relation who's house then needs to sold. These prices will set the 'normal' in any given street. It may be a comparitively small amount at the moment but it's going to gather an alarming pace over the coming months
Even 2 years (the most optimistic view) is a long, long storm to ride out.
I think it is your inability to read my post and then then try to make out I am being "bullish" and go on to make the same point that Narks me.:rolleyes:
But As I said have people put seperation on hold for the last year?
15,000 per month that is a lot of pent up seperation.:rotfl:0 -
Or was it this?
Rightmove, very desperate for business, and it shows.'Just think for a moment what a prospect that is.

I find ignore so funny.
I could write that I heared a rumor CF was caught in an uncompising position in a lift with a goat and he would not know.:rotfl:
But it is just a rumor I heared, I am sure it's complatly without any substance so I would not bother writing it.0
