Up 10% in 10 months, after spending just 1 month at bottom.:beer:

Your far to happy so early on, looks like you will have egg on your face. Stimulas ended, rates to go up with selling prices now leveling off and falling.

Brit, it would be impossible to have as much egg on face as you do....
You have called it wrong, every single time. All your predictions have been the exact opposite of what has happened.
Your comments haunt you every time you post, because you have been flat out wrong about everything so far.
In fact, I just found a photo of you........

And that comment is from a guy got his predictions right allthe time. Hamishit is time to r-readsome of the comments you made during the crash. There is no difference between you and the others, both liars.:beer:0 -

Speak of the devilEven reasonable posts like the one above tended to get flamed by the more moronic bears on this site earlier this year (generally the ones that lack the economic knowledge necessary to reply with a logic-based post).This is a system account and does not represent a real person.

Did your so called economic knowledge predicted the crash ? If not then you are an idiot like the rest:beer:0 -

Hmmm. So where did you end up after being booted off of there? Also with the constant ''come see what a HPCer just wrote' thread every 5 minutes. Hamish, your jealousy of that site is very hard to disguise. :rolleyes:0 -

What magnificent news ! Glad I got into the market in 2009

Another case of selective viewing. Maybe you mean asking prices as every major market tracker is showing near double digit falls from peak. In fact, Halifax is showing closer to 20% from peak. :beer:
See sig for a rock solid piece of evidence from yet another highly regarded source..

You post that and then accuse us of selective viewing?:eek:
Every major market tracker is showing near double digit rises since trough. In fact, the cumulative tracker, that includes all the others, the FT Acadametrics index, shows prices now just 7% below peak.
Many areas are already back to peak, or within a percent or two of it.See sig for a rock solid piece of evidence from yet another highly regarded source..

:rotfl:
I see you revised your signature after I noted prices had risen in cambridgeshire by £6,000 in just the couple of months since you first posted it.;)
Ouch....
School report - F, young Skappy shows no talent for this subject. His time would be better spent elsewhere.“The great enemy of the truth is very often not the lie – deliberate, contrived, and dishonest – but the myth, persistent, persuasive, and unrealistic.

Asking prices are still being cut here.....we are a long way from house price recovery in this area although more houses are being sold now than a year ago.
Mind you, our peak was April 08 so we started the process after a lot of other places.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.

Not where I live either. The good thing is that I`m not seeing lots of houses being reposessed. Last one was in June last year and they actually moved out of the house so I assumed it was voluntary. The house sold within 2 weeks of it going up for sale. Another one near me sold quite quickly but waiting for it to go through to see the actual price.0
