Is there any reason to be optimistic about house prices at the moment?

    Exactly. Just interesting the OP assumed it was one way only.

    Lots of discussion on there.

    Personally, I don't think 1 month's figures are enough of an indicator - but I could be wrong.

    Incidentally, am I the only one to find the title of your thread curiously ambiguous? Rising house prices are good news for some, falling house prices for others.

    Good point, didnt realise there was 2 house-related boards.

    See your point about the optimism, I of course meant optimistic as in rising, which is not good for everyone - and especially bad for me and my plan!
