House prices ??? I thought it was a posting that there is such a thing as a free lunch or is it just a twirl.Nice to save.0 -
i wouldn't say buy now - i'd say buy now, the right property at the right price.
it's never a bad time to buy - just some times are better than others.
Feb 2009 was the best for a few years
Booger !! I waited until May 2009 !!! That'll teach me to listen to the bears on here

Its a sad state of affairs when a predicted 0.5% MOM rise in house prices prompts a front page headline. This country is just bonkers.0

you have been around such a long time that you still think that the ticket price of a property is what you pay for a house...:rotfl:
Unless its the peak of a bubble, yeap september 2007 was a very good month to buy in lol
So will May 2010 :rotfl:
do the maths on buying in Sept 2007 on a 1% tracker and buying in Sept 2008 on a 3% tracker when houses were cheaper... it doesn't matter when you buy as long as you get a good cheap rate
no wonder you struggle with the basic stuff Brit - it's getting embarrassing now for you0 -
what were the mortgage rates on offer comparing to 2010 and 2008 - would it not have been cheaper to buy in early 2009?Between first and second half of 2009; average price in the three lowest price bands went down, whilst those in the bands reaching £500k went up......
the answer is yes it was the best time to buy because mortgage rates were cheapest0 -
