I look at brand new porsche's all the time.....pity i cant afford one
Let's say that a Porsche garage usually gets between 3,000 and 4,000 visitors a month and normally sells between 30 and 40 cars per month. If one month they get 5,000 vistors then one would assume that they'll sell around 50 cars that month.
More importantly, why are you going to look at Porsches all the time if you can't afford one? Strange.0 -

There's that word assume again
What, like when you assume that just because you can't afford a house, or a Porsche for that matter, nobody else can either?“The great enemy of the truth is very often not the lie – deliberate, contrived, and dishonest – but the myth, persistent, persuasive, and unrealistic.
Belief in myths allows the comfort of opinion without the discomfort of thought.”

There's that word assume again
Yes, assume. I'm not saying that increased visits to a mortgage website surely means that more FTBers are taking mortgages, that would be stupid. But a sensible, logical stance to take would be to assume under normal conditions that if more people are interested in looking at mortgages, then that will translate to more people actually going the next step and taking mortages, unless there's another factor I'm not aware of. You surely agree with that, yes?0 -
Can we get real for just a second.
This tells us interest is up.
That's it. It tells us nothing more. Another bit of research can tell us interest is down.
In other words, it gives us nothing really to go on, other than people are visiting a website.0 -

Do you find mortgage rates for FTB's sexually arousing?:eek:
In my experience, going through the hassle of looking up mortgage deals is something you only do when you're actually trying to buy a house, not for cheap thrills on a weekend.“The great enemy of the truth is very often not the lie – deliberate, contrived, and dishonest – but the myth, persistent, persuasive, and unrealistic.

No, no, you silly Scottish sausage. You love missing the point. You and your cute emoticons. My analogy was pretty simple to understand but you had to get saucy, you filthy man.
It's very little hassle checking out available deals on t'Internet. Doesn't mean you're any more likely to move. That is all.Long live the faces of t'wunty.0
