    yet another idiot which hasnt addressed my original post.

    im in no rush ill just pick a home up from someone who is in desperate need to sell. since my job is pretty secure and i earn alot im in prime possition to take advantage. i was looking to buy this year and decided against it. so i shared with everyone why its best not to buy.

    fact is your homes losing value and mine wont since i havent bought yet.

    you should get off the Internet before your mum gets home from work otherwise you'll be in big trouble!! :rotfl:

    Funny I would use "they are working on" not "we are working on"

    Unless I was trying to make myself sound of good educational background or a genius.:rolleyes:

    Also hangliding on to pylons carrys a risk of electrocution.

    and handgliding into an electric pylon whilst having a bath in scolding water although probably impossible should also be avoided
  • So, what was the point of your original post?
    If it had no bearing at all on your situation?

    Just a friendly bit of altruism?


    Seems to have back fired somewhat :)

    lol yes are your opinion is right on the money as usual - not

    "
    But Nationwide said this was no longer an indication that the market was picking up, arguing: 'The relationship between buyer enquiries and approvals has broken down.'
    In the current environment, people are curious about how far prices have fallen but are not keen to commit amid rising unemployment and uncertainty about future incomes.
    Furthermore, the lack of availability of mortgages is also discouraging people from turning enquiries into sales."

    You are scared of missing out,hence the first post,and others posting that some property is moving, just admit it.

    Where did you get that pic from? What on earth is going on there?
  • what makes me laugh most is you still cant disprove my original post. and revert back to personal attacks.

    you dont know my situation and im pretty sure at 24 you werent in as good situation as i am.

    personally i cant miss out on anything. when i buy ill win no matter what. i earn alot of money and i live in an area which isnt overpriced like london, ive just been told my job is secure and i also have 9 months notice on my job even if it did go. i get 40 days a year holiday.

    so unlike what you think i wont be living anywhere like that photo, i suppose this is your house.. right?

    and even if i did want to make a move this year id just sell me bmw and move earlier. but there is no need
