I'm happy with that, if the alternative is reeling off the same factually incorrect nonsense time and time again, interspersed with an insulting tirade at someone, palming it off as banter when they complain, before being banned again.

I love the way people get exicted by these headlines whether they say prices are going up or down. I remember back in 2006 the Express had a headline of prices to double by something 2013. They are just trying to sell papers and I suspect its what their readers want to read so they print. Didn't one of either the haliwide economists say that it would be a few months before they would be able to tell the trend? Now all of a sudden without any quotes they are both predicting rises.
I'm sure though there will be those sellers now accepting nothing other than asking prices because they read it in the Express that prices are going to rise.0 -
I've been out of the loop for a while, can you please post a link to a table/chart that shows that house prices are currently going down?

Should hopefully have another negative Halifax figure this Thursday and Land registry to go properly negative next month or one after.
I see all the bulls are gloating on a story with no substance from a public relations group paid by the building industry.
Hamish this is the 3rd time bulls published this story.:exclamatiScams - Shared Equity, Shared Ownership, Newbuy, Firstbuy and Help to Buy.

Two out of those 4 show a downward trend yea. The other 2 show stagnation more or less (with nationwide looking debatable). Will see how it pans out over the next few months I suppose.
here's what his massive price falls are from his post
Nationwide +2.20%
Halifax -0.10%
Land Registry -0.20%
Acadametrics -1.90%
that's no where near his 50% off peak prices he was proclaiming...0 -

If you combine all of those numbers you end up with a flat 0. It's almost strange.0 -
Odd how the Express is a very respected source when they report the opposite. Anyone would think you're all massively discrediting yourselves.
Again.
Not really. I've never thought the Express more than loo paper....much enquiry having been made concerning a gentleman, who had quitted a company where Johnson was, and no information being obtained; at last Johnson observed, that 'he did not care to speak ill of any man behind his back, but he believed the gentleman was an attorney'.0
