hpcrash.co.uk has rotted your brain. they did you a favor bye banning you. but good luck to you all the sameI had my investment house valued in 2007 at £90,000.
There is no way on earth I would take 1 pence under that. I want 90k to spend. Not 80k or 70k.
Prices wont go down but if they were to dip then I'd know to hold on until they went back up. Next two years is a bad time to sell so best leave it rented out. No sweat whatever.
I wouldn't let my house go cheap. To be honest it will probably be selling for around £225,00 by the time I want to sell it in 5 years time.0 -

Yes but they all will be according to the experts, particularly the moneyweek ones.
Surely anyone with any confidence in their forecast that the market will be 50% down by 2011 (HPC forecast) would take advantage of this fantastic offer?
Or perhaps they don't really have any faith their own predictions...0 -

I guess hes the other end of the scale to Brit. At least most of us are somewhere in the middle.0 -

Perhaps, but to be fair I do recall he did have a 100% success rate with predicting the future, which is 100% more than everyone else on HPC.
No doubt the reason they banned him.0 -

Past tense. Hindsight is a wonderful gift that God bestowed upon anyone wishing to make a particular point of view.
More likely he upset the bosses at Capital Economics and they complained .........0 -

I'm just curious whether you would be prepared to sell me your current property at 2011 prices now?
I would.
Ok, strictly speaking it's not my house but I'll give you a decent chip off the asking price for cash.0
