Poor guy.

I had been wondering where brit had gotten the passion for the large point size, bold, red and black text from...

I suppose that imitation is the best form of flattery in this instance.

So Hamish, on the other side of the hedge how much are you set to loose from this crash, so far? Its gotta be a big figure for you to feel good and have to highlight this poor b*ggers wrong decision.....

£200,000 by STR-ing at the wrong time back in 2005.:eek:

Priceless.:D

Looking at many of the comments on there, we got banned for less. What a difference a few months makes.

100% of the time, what you see is what you get.

I imagine this explains why you spend such a long time alone on the internet.

Nice one Hamish. Thanks for highlighting another persons misery after they were brave enough to follow through their thoughts with action. :cool::D:rolleyes::p:mad:

I too have had a damn good belly laugh at them. FOOLS!!! :beer::j

And whats better!? They now can't afford a roof either! :T

Hmm - I'm not especially worried about the STR lot to be honest. If you take a gamble like that, essentially shorting a market, you have to be prepared to lose. Most of them seem to be talking about localised areas in London anyway. I should think prices will head downwards before too long anyway.

I'm more worried about the average Joes ability to access decent property.

Which is why I think Hamish is such a contemptible little creep.

Errr, Graham, would that be anything like the intense schadenfreude about BTL investors going bankrupt or off plan purchasers getting shafted?

Don't recall you making a fuss about that?

come on Hamish be nice... the guy has lost money, you should be happy or even laughing...

one thing you need to do understand is the double standards if it's a HPCer or one of the 'negative type people' in financial difficulty you should really feel sorry for them.

however, if it's a over-extended homeowner or an over-levareged BTLer there are queues of people on here salivating and laughing at them hoping that they get reposessed probably hoping that they'll get a cheap house.

I bought in July 2007 so would lose money if I sold now.

So whats the difference?

For everybodys sake we need a stable market which isnt a lottery gamble as to when to buy and sell. I accept that share prices move quickly. But I am able to smooth out price fluctuatons by buying over an extended period , a house is a singular one off transaction.
