    It is nice to see the value of your house going up'' Why ?
    Unless you are planning to sell up and not live anywhere, I can;t see the advantage.
    If you are planning to upsize the new house will cost more.
    If you are planning to downsize your new house will cost more than it should
    If you are trying to buy your first house its almost impossible.

    I think your criticsim is very unfair, I am sure his magical roullette wheel actually works, red = fall, black - rise and the number is the percentage.

    i cant see any stabilisation of prices until mortgage lending is improved and job losses are stemmed. until then demand on homes will be low which force prices down and down

    Er..that would be the same widely-respected Roger Bootle who was one of the few economists to correctly pinpoint the bubble and come closest to predicting the massive falls we have seen over the lat year?

    I suppose it all depends on your perspective. Better - to my mind - to call the peak too early than not to call at all.

    Oh Carol,

    Here is an analysis of the widely respected (Roger Bootles) Capital Economics by the Oracle.
