I'll bear that in mind - was just wondering if the FTBs over the next 6 months are going to be the last FTBs able to buy at a discount is all (presumably the future ftb at university with no job or savings yet isn't going to be able to take advantage of this discount? tho they could borrow the deposit if they did want to get in before the door shuts on them?)

i don't think the door will be shut, it will be easier to open for some but harder to open for many more. lending will dictate the tempo of the market.

You are right of course - reading some of the other posts above for a second it seemed there wasn't much time left!

Its just a headline. Prices could have fallen 1.8% in the last month, they still would have been higher than a year ago.

The 0.4% increase represents an 'average' house increase of £222 last month.

Nobody knows whats going to happen in the future, but there seems to be very little movement in the area I am looking, prices seem to of stabbled off lately rather then increased though.

What a lovely person you are encouraging people to get into massive debt, in a pathetic attempt to support the meaningless value of your pile of wood and bricks.

Buy in 2 years time when prices are on the floor. :beer:
