Great news to see the bears scrambling to get back into the market.

So much for the great Double Dip theory, so often peddled on here

Interesting.

A 'bear' is an investor who has taken a reasoned analysis of a market and decided that a particular asset class is likely to decline in value. As opposed to a bull - who has decided the opposite.

Its not an ideological position - its based on logic, something the frothing at the mouth ingrained prejudice of posters such as yourself, in all your incarnations here, have proved utterly bereft of.

Whether you like it or not, and regardless of the NW stats, a great many people who couldnt afford to buy anywhere two years ago , now can.

I was going to keep updating this as a, hopefully useful, insight into someone who is actually going through the buying process - and keep you all updated to my experiences.

I thought people would find this a useful counterpart to the standard cutting ans pasting of headlines followed by the standard 5 pages of arguing.

As its now been taken over by the usual ghouls and freaks, carrying their bags full of bitterness spawned from their poor life choices. I wont bother, nor do I want to share my business with such people.

I see you've already started stalking me across threads - based on your totally erroneous assumptions.

If anyone who is a genuine board member wants to PM me for updates or any advice based on my circumstantial experiences they are more than welcome.

Cheerio.

Maybe worth posting in the Housing forum? There is a thread there for those buying in these difficult times. The problem on this forum is that most are simply trying to get one over on each other so real stories have little interest to them.

I'll probably start looking at the end of the month to get a feel for the market and will probably post in that forum.

They always do.....

A good flounce is usually the best way to distract attention from their "poor life choices".:rotfl:

Like wasting years of your life waiting for a big stonking crash, p1ssing tens of thousands up the wall in rent, failing to see the bottom when it arrives, misinterpreting the recovery as a bull trap, and then buying a house 10% up from the bottom, when bank margins (the bigger cost by far than price) are more expensive than they were both at peak, and at the bottom.

And you can fck off as well.

Update:


Dodgy online conveyancers googled.

Don't do it. I had a nightmare with a sale a few years ago using a cheap online conveyancer. They are ok as long as there are no problems with anything but soon as there is an issue with some paperwork or land registry details they are pathetic. Pay a bit more, use someone local. If any issues arise you can always go and knock on their door !

Awww !!! Poor old ruggedtoast has been rumbled as having completely mis-called the market and now can't take the heat when he his bluff has been called

:rotfl::rotfl:

With charming, articulate, and well thought through interventions like the one quoted your insight will be missed on this board.

So long,
Fare well,
Auf widersehen,
Good bye
