Now where are those pesky Nationwide figures

Are those the figures that the property rampers were using last month to say the crash was over and green shoots were appearing? :mad:

January is going to be a very bad month for house price news with 2 Nationwide and 2 Halifax figures.

Now if I do my maths right.....in money terms as I'm saving 600 quid a month at the moment from my pay.....add that to 900 quid a week drop in prices I'm actually saving each month ABOUT

I take it you are another 1 of these people that live rent free, £600 savings here irrelevant, but non the less a good saving this month;)

I voted for 15% drop next year. On these last figures I think I will re-adjust to 20-25% drop, potentially even more.

Where are the graphs????

Currently....

Nationwide £158,442 (Nov 08)
Halifax £159,896 (Dec 08)

Looks like the 2 will soon have a parity and then become quite a useful measure;)

Are Nationwide going to report a similar -2.2% or something a bit lower to try and get the figures closer to a parity

Im sure they'll let us know in the next week or so.....

I dont know if that's something to go shouting about, you have to come out into the big bad real world 1 day and boy are you in for a shock, you'll have to actually do things yourself without getting told;)

Some of these 1man wa*k tanks are really not nice places to be living in(You'll know that familiar expression being in the military )
