Up 0%-0.5%Tiny increase, 0.1% or 0.2%, something like that.
Then we'll see a couple of small drops.
I'd be amazed if average house prices are more than +/- 5% from current levels in a year's time.0 -
They can't keep rising at the rate they have been surely?

quite a fair assumption
do you realise that the above makes you an over-leveraged bull and a HPI cheerleader for having that opinion and not saying that house prices will drop another 20%?

Up 0.5%-1%I've said between 0.5 and 1% (the figure I had in mind was 0.7....not that I am basing it on anything!)We made it! All three boys have graduated, it's been hard work but it shows there is a possibility of a chance of normal (ish) life after a diagnosis (or two) of ASD. It's not been the easiest route but I am so glad I ignored everything and everyone and did my own therapies with them.

Up 0.5%-1%Up a bit I think (possibly optimistically)
Prices do still seem to be defiying the summer lull and edging upwards. From speaking to a couple of EA' and a broker recently they all seemed to agree things were looking up. Also, a recent surveyors valuation on my house in late July surprisingly came in 5% higher than an estate agents valuation in May. So, applying all of that highly sketchy and impossibly niche information I'm going for +0.5-1%!!

If I had to put real life cash on where prices are going to be in a years time, I would say lower, but I wouldn't be shocked if they were a bit up.
ps where is the "down more than 5%" option?Freedom is not worth having if it does not include the freedom to make mistakes.0 -

Shouldn't that be another 50%

Up 0%-0.5%Locally where the turn in the market was very pronounced in Feb/March the sales and prices achieved have brought a lot more properties on to the market at very inflated asking prices some of which have started to be reduced of late - whether this will feed through in to the Nationwide figures yet is doubtful but I think the predicted stagnation/small falls is very much on the cards along with volumes falling back again.I think....0
