    I love it when the bears get a glimmer of hope.
    Only takes a headline or two of positive news to send them clambering back into the pit of despair.

    Come on Sky news, the Express and Halifax data.

    Lets get them back on the Prozac.:beer:

    That was so funny last time figures rose. They were folded up like a Brighton deckchair.

    The newspapers must have run out of steam on the houses are going up story. Change it to they are crashing for a week or so. Keep the 30p's coming in.:rotfl:

    To be honest it's all getting a bit boring now.

    One month house prices supposedly rise and the bulls give it out.

    Next month they go down and it's the bears turn.

    Houses where I live are selling for more than 2007 prices but then I'm in that golden Sevenoaks/Tunbridge Wells area everyone keeps going on about.

    One thing for sure. With interest rates this low I'm happy to be a homeowner. :rotfl:

    Renting is dead money and I still say you can't start harping on about prices crashing until you are sitting in your lovely cut price house.

    Not a single bear has bought a bargain and they won't because decent places don't go cheap. At the end of the day you all know that as well. Show me a 50% discounted house in Loose Valley Kent or somewhere I want to live.:rotfl:

    sibeley you really are a bit of a silly sausage but i know you mean well. im still deligted that we offerred you shelter after hpc rejected you so cruely. i really hope your enjoying your new home. good on you

    I don't see anything in the report that says house prices themselves have fallen significantly.
    you wouldn't have.

    it's amazing that only a certain type of forum member could see or even think that house prices have fallen significantly when the article doesn't say it.

    you got to give it ot them with their never say die attitude...

    Maybe they are looking outside of everything the article says? You know, like, looking at whats gone on.

    Even if the article doesn't specifically tell them.

    so the OP has started a thread saying "House prices in the South East fall significantly", referring to the RICS report and they're trying to look outside of everything the article says...

    manybe..... but No.
    Even if the article doesn't specifically tell them.
    exactly - you're agreeing that the article says absolutely nothing about "House prices in the South East fall significantly" and the OP is making it up
