All bears together..............rejoice.:D

I'm not a true bear, but I'll pat you on the back and shake you hand if you like?

Anyway: I'm going to try and work out for myself what is included in these: I'm not sure you guys don't even agree! But I'm trying to get ready to go out ATM...:o so was hoping someone could convince me one way or the other:o

Ok LIR, I think we can unanimously conclude that regardless of Halifax, FT, Nationwide or the LR, that all these indexes will be lower in Dec 09 than they are now, and if someone wants to put that in a sig, I grant you copyright to do so.:D

As a bear,

Who cares, the stats are getting close to being meaningless due to very low volumes.

Maybe they should start doing it quarterly? At least then it'll be smoother and hence a little more accurate.

Anyone know what month/year that puts us back to in prices terms? So I can see what things are worth now, IYSWIM?

As a rule of thumb, provided they sell more than about 1000-1500 new mortgages a month, sample sizes should not be an issue. (Happy to be corrected by any professional statisticians here).

At a guess, we are still in 2004, I believe there was a big jump in HPI near the beginning of that year, so it will take a little while to unwind that.
