Exactly, which is why the huge boost in house prices that some people are predicting as a result may not come to pass. I hear an awful lot of estate agent guff about the East London Line extension.Politics is not the art of the possible. It consists of choosing between the disastrous and the unpalatable. J. K.

I've only ever been wrong once! and that was when I thought I was wrong but I was right0 -

would just like to say this a quality thread to read - Graham and AD, at least your around taking it on the chin and bantering back, many others are in denial just like the uber bears were previously. you'll get your own back soon, don't worry.
one month doesn't really mean much at the moment - however with the other positives out this month it is positive progression and nobody - not even Mewbs and Wookster can deny that.
i've said we'll have a few of these months then the usual 2% drops to balance things out again - my guess these will be in the quieter summer months. the 'real' recovery will happen in late this year or early 2010.
I tend to agree .I dont think anyone would argue that in say 6 months time..Prices will be lower than they are now, the only question is how much lower ..0 -

Too late mate it has already happened Hackney prices went beserk about 3 years ago much more than the average London area and as we have just heard isn't falling as much as other areas.
Incidently there will be a train every 5 mins (not 10) into/out of Hackney and the trains will be air conditioned:

Not desperate, simply looking further ahead that focussing on single month +/- figures, and trying to predict future direction. I have no vested interest, I'm just playing mystic meg. Do you disagree with my prediction?
Here are a few of you recent posts:When are they due out? We desperately need some more stats to chew over.Ok that's 4 more pages of the usual speculation...
WE NEED SOME REAL DATA PEOPLE!!!
Come on nationwide, pull yer finger outThank goodness for that, only a couple more days until we get something to talk about :-)
And then this prediction from mystic meg:I suspect that the slight increase in buying activity will actually show up at a -1.6% drop, as buyers will have haggled discounts.
Now, all off a sudden single +/- don't matter :rolleyes:0 -

Which price, flats, houses, 1,2,3,4 bedrooms, in the town, in the country, new build, older builds or the mystical average house?
Did you know on average people have less than 2 legs0
