Debate House Prices


In order to help keep the Forum a useful, safe and friendly place for our users, discussions around non MoneySaving matters are no longer permitted. This includes wider debates about general house prices, the economy and politics. As a result, we have taken the decision to keep this board permanently closed, but it remains viewable for users who may find some useful information in it. Thank you for your understanding.

    I am particularly interested to hear the views of those who think the brown stuff is really going to hit the fan in 2009, although all views welcome of course.


    Are you refering to poor old Gordon again? If you are yes I think the Brown stuff is really going to hit the fan in 2010:rotfl:

    my predictions

    2009
    House Prices -25%
    Inflation 5%
    Interest Rate 3% year end
    FTSE 100 5000 year end

    2010
    House Prices -10%
    Inflation 10%
    Interest Rate 6% year end
    FTSE 100 5800 year end

    Sounds like equities may not be a bad bet? :D
